Since the 17th Sony sold in December 2011, the new portable console PS Vita in Japan. The start was anything but easy - many customers complained about system crashes due to a faulty system software. Sony now has the problem fixed with a patch. Live with the limp sales, the Group must, however: It is the first time, finds the new hardware is not No. 1 on the Japanese sales charts. Of the reasons can only surmise: certainly plays the 3DS console competitor Nintendo a big role.

The discount of the device and freshly released games cracker like ” Super Mario 3D Land “and” Mario Kart 7 “caused probably that gamers in the land of the rising sun is currently more likely to 3DS console access as the PS Vita - as evidenced by the sales figures: the calendar week 51 immigrants , according to the Japanese market research firm Media Create sales around 482 000 Nintendo consoles over the counters. Sony’s new pocket players sold in this period, 72 479 times

Dutch are increasingly using a tablet. Earlier this month the counter stood at 1.7 million users, nearly six times as much as one year ago.

According to the latest figures from research company GfK. Last December, the Netherlands had over 300,000 tablet users. In six months time, that number grew to 725,000, more than twice as much. Meanwhile the count had risen to over 1.7 million tablet users. Average of 2.3 persons using a tablet. This number is probably so low because of the limited use of the very young, very elderly and non-tablet owners. GfK calculates that 1.7 million Dutch next year, consider purchasing a tablet. This sounds a little on the low side.

According to TNS NIPO considering eight out of ten Dutch next year to buy a tablet. Quite a big difference in understanding. How much money consumers would spend on a new tablet or how soon they will do is unknown. Know Gfk reported that tablet owners on average 20 to 25 apps on their device already. The figures also show that more and more consumers buy a smartphone. Six months ago, some 4.7 million Dutch one smartphone, now that number has risen to 5.5 million.

Microsoft recently for the launch of the Apple iPad Tablet PC application software frequently, these initiatives led to some industry debate, many people questioned the wisdom of the move for Microsoft.

First of all, Microsoft has realized that it no longer occupies the dominant position of the computing world, lost more mobile. Therefore, the harsh reality had forced the company to promote the application to each platform.

In other words, Microsoft launched iPad version of OneNote, Lync and SkyDrive software program is not for Apple’s Tablet PC to be optimized, but rather simply want to seize the mobile business. In short, the kind of in a single platform to launch the killer application to dominate the world of the times gone.

Well-known IT writers, Mary Jo Foley Microsoft watchers, said: “Recently, I contact people in Microsoft’s moves seem to have great differences, some people think that Microsoft is in many non-Windows platforms, particularly Apple iOS platform provides the key to the company software and services is a wise move, Microsoft is a software vendor, the move will help the company to appease the customer, but also can earn additional profits, while others argued that Microsoft should continue to maintain it as the only Windows and Windows Phone platform software vendor hegemony, thus avoiding the loss of customers.

I much prefer the former view. I believe that a single killer application platform to dominate the world is gone, although the Windows team is still interested by Windows 8 to maintain the kind of business model. ”

Looking to the future, Microsoft may also have a great interest in the Android. It really should be extended to their software has a broad user base of each platform. At least, there is no guarantee on the Tablet PC Windows 8 will become a popular product. Even Microsoft is losing on the tablet, it can also be deployed on the main platform for their products, so as not to lose the position of the company’s software infrastructure.
