Before the iPad Mini was put on sale last Friday, many criticized for its high price, have a lower resolution than the competition and bring only a few new features. Still, this did not affect sales of the device.
Through its CEO, Tim Cook, Apple wasted no time in announcing that during the weekend set a new record in sales and almost exhausted all available Mini iPad. Obviously already working to create more units and to meet the high demand from consumers, who between Friday and Sunday acquired about 3 million iPads between the iPad and the iPad Mini 4, which means that they were, on average, a million iPads per day.
It is more than likely that many consumers believe they have the obligation to take any of the new devices on the block since last Friday at 8 am and there were 800 people in line at the store that the company is in Manhattan. Not only the weather was unfavorable, but also due to damage caused by Hurricane Sandy much of the city was without power, with various problems that hampered transportation and some areas were still flooded.
Below is a video of the line of people waiting to buy the new iPad.

After the release of the iPhone 5, sales of the Samsung Galaxy S III rose enough, so it is likely that many were waiting to see which of the two devices was better and in the end opted for the South Korean company supersmartphone. But problems Apple does not end here, as it seems that Apple is losing its loyal fans slowly.
According to Strategy Analytics firm, last year, 93% of iPhone users in the United States agreed to purchase the new version of the iPhone, but now, after the launch of the new model, only 88% buy the iPhone 6 or whatever it will be called. This indicates a drop of 5 points against Apple. If we go to Europe, last year the percentage was 88%, but this year it has dropped to 75%.
According to Paul Brown of Strategy Analytics, these results are due to two things: first the press, which generally has not spoken highly of Apple for several months, and on the other hand the lack of innovation. All this leads to more and more fans to question themselves if they really buy the future version of the iPhone.
Furthermore it is noteworthy that the terminals with the Android operating system Google has won a 16% increase of its market share in Europe recently.

As ESI, the guys from Microsoft are planning to change some things to your new Windows 8, and one of these things will remove Windows Live Messenger from the start line, putting in place the great Skype.
Is this the end of the famous chat client? No, because apparently Windows Live Messenger will be integrated into Skype in the coming months, and as noted it will be officially announced soon.
This is the latest attempt by Microsoft to link their accounts with Skype software it acquired last year for about $ 8.5 billion dollars. Windows Live Messenger, on the other hand, a client is much older than Skype and dates back to 1999 when it was called MSN Messenger. At its peak, it reached 330 million users, but today that number has dropped considerably.

No wonder that many applications store Play Google are infected with viruses and the like, but what is really surprising is that these five people managed to take information on millions of Android through its applications.

Before downloading an application, remember to find references to it on the internet to avoid such problems.
