In the wake of yesterday’s Apple event, in which Steve Jobs suggested Google’s daily Sony VGP-BPS8 Battery activation numbers were inflated, prompting a terse response from Google, the research company Net Applications is weighing in with its own set of stats. Granted, studies of mobile market share come a dime a dozen, and often fail to take into account, say, the most recent product announcements. Those caveats aside, the numbers suggest that iOS bests Android in both market share as well as mobile web browsing.
Interestingly, whereas the numbers showed that iOS sony VGP-BPS9/B Battery devices had been trailing Android ones in market share, this began to shift around May of this year, accelerating in June, presumably when the iPhone 4 went on sale. (Perhaps, too, this shift includes the iPad’s rising momentum in late Spring). On the mobile web browsing side, Android always trailed iOS, but it seems that iOS gained an even bigger margin in that same May-June time frame. Again, the iPad’s strong sales, combined with the fact that the iPhone 4′s launch was, according to Apple, the strongest ever, could have something to do with it.
As we’ve said before, the balance of power between Android and iOS is tenuous, and the numbers are only part Sony VGP-BPS9A/B Battery of the story. We’ll be curious to see how these numbers look at the end of the year, particularly when an onslaught of Android tablets will too be counted
Toshiba Recalls Melting, Overheating Satellite T-Series Notebooks
When reviewing notebooks, we generally advise consumers that if a notebook’s temperature sony VGP-BPS9 battery exceeds 100 degrees, you’ve got a problem. A more obvious sign, though, is when the computer starts melting.
That’s what happened to one too many Toshiba sony VGP-BPS9/S battery Satellite T-Series laptops. Both the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and Health Canada have announced they are recalling the Satellites T135, T135D, and ProT130 after receiving 129 reports of the cases melting and becoming misshapen. Although no injuries were reported, the situation obviously presents both an inconvenience and a fire hazard.
In its recall notice, Toshiba states that the problem could be caused by a faulty DC-In harness. Users can download a BIOS Sony Laptop Battery update that will determine if this is the problem. If it is, external power will be cut off, to prevent further damage (meaning, users can’t charge their notebooks until the problem has been repaired). Customers will then have to call Toshiba for warranty support
