As every week, every moment we have been on some changes or breakthrough in the world of technology.

BB10

Recently, these years there has been quite lot about earnings related to RIM. When talking about RIM we know Blackberry. It was a smart product but not now which is clear in its earning reports. The main reason of its downfall is its technologically obsolete as compared to the other competitor on the market such as Apple, Google etc. There has been reports of RIM cutting 5K+ of employee and add to that Bloomberg has reported that IBM has "made informal approach" to acquire RIM's enterprise services unit, which is really at the core of BlackBerry's business. But there is hope with BBM 10 but again they have been delaying its release too. Unless RIM comes with something out of box for its BBM 10 its gonna be straight free fall for them.

Profit For Nvidia

Mostly we have heard of Nvidia as tech company producing graphical units, and its true :-) but recently with Intel integrating graphics on CPU itself, has hugely reduced its need to ordinary users mainly on laptops but it has cashed in on mobile market with ARM chips. Nvidia’s bet on ARM chips has already started to pay off, as their profits have doubled to $119 million on $1.04 billion revenue from $60.4 million in profit last quarter. And with Nexus 7 and its sales there will certainly be rise on their profit. We hope best for best. Good luck Nvidia.

Barnes & Noble Pricing Down Nooks

Before Nexus 7 came to existence, the world was round when we considered tablets but after its existence the world shook, so it was best for most of its companions to compete lowering bit of price. In addition, lowering of price has huge relation with its updates coming up soon. The 16GB model, originally $249 is now $199, and the 8GB model, originally $199, has dropped down to $179. Joining the club on the lower end, the Nook Color is also $20 cheaper, moving from its original price of $169 to $149.

Wikileaks Leaks

We have known that wikileaks which is leaking some of top confidential secrets has its official site down, thanks to anti-leaks which is a bunch of people who knows about DDoS attack. DDoS means sending continuous request to the server creating server overload and hence failure. There has been some exchanges in twitter regarding this. However wikileaks has its mirror site (reflection of original site) ON and asking for donation to fight antileaks attacking at 10gigabits/sec. They have been successful in recovering their site after nine days.

Berg's Little Printer
Technology has been merging those huge junks to mini components and now its turn for this little cute printer. Now you can sit back, connect it wireless to your router and just print. To its size its mostly suited for more of horizontal stuffs such as task lists, direct message and the developers are working ways to integrate this little device to Google and other platforms.

Kickstarter
Now this has been one of revealing thing for us. Previously we had heard somewhere about it but as we dived into its depth, its was like total revelation for us. Basic concept is, there are different backer to fund your idea overall project. Isn't it great, so for now you need no money, you just need an idea and dedication.

Microsoft Surface
It was and is captivating to eyes and now to your pocket too. Its in the air that its price tag will be like $199, Wow!!! simply amazing a 10.6" with beautiful VaporMg casing with Nvidia Tegra chip. Surely Nexus 7 did do a lot when it comes to pricing. But I would still go for Nexus 7 and surface ;-)

SmartWatch UI
Now this watch was quite impressive when I watched its video. I am so glad to be part of this era where so much is going on.

Mi-Two

This is the best android phone ever on technical grounds from Chinese company Xiaomi. It is a advance version of popular handset Mi-One which might cost about $350.
