The new device called the called the Eee Pad, will start selling in the first quarter of next year. The touch-screen tablet personal computer will use Microsoft’s Windows 7 operating system and Intel Processor

In a potentially risky move that underscores the importance of software in the burgeoning tablet market, Asustek will also launch an application store, like Apple’s App store. Long a hardware maker, Asustek has far less experience developing consumer software.

Asustek’s announcement, which was expected, marks a victory for Microsoft in the intensifying battle over whose software will control tablet PCs, a segment that has been gaining increasing attention since Apple unveiled the iPad in January. That device, which came on the market in April, has already sold at least two million units.

Android, the operating system developed by Microsoft rival Google Inc. for Smartphones, has so far had the upper hand. Acer Inc., the No. 2 PC maker after Hewlett Packard Co., last week announced plans to start selling a tablet by October that will use Android. And No. 3 PC maker Dell said it is developing a five-inch tablet computer that will run on Android. Android is already marketed worldwide and there are thousands of apps already available. In addition Android is a open and free system allowing software developers to write custom apps. Microsoft windows is a closed system meaning Microsoft only allows parts of its source code available to developers and Microsoft charges for every copy of windows and office

Tablet PCs are the New rage with luxury goods makers designing fashionable cases for these new devices they promise to keep popping up wherever you go

Android like Apple is encouraging developers to write new software for business as well as leisure and productivity programs. Apple has its popular IPhone and has just released the impressive IPad. Microsoft has had a tablet Pc operating system for years and only 2 manufactures have produced Tablets running Microsoft Software

Microsoft is expected to announce major organizational changes at its Entertainment & Devices Division. It’s time for Microsoft to make some changes but I don’t see what shuffling up the Executive suite will help when competitors are developing and releasing devices that are challenging Microsoft Dominance in software. Microsoft is a global leader with its Windows Operating System, the Zune music player and the X box 360.

That Dominance is being challenged by Apple that continues to release blockbuster new devices free updates and a store with 200,000 apps. Google sells the Nexus One Smartphone and has licensed Android its operating system to thousands of developers and cell phone hardware manufactured. There is even a Rumor of a Google Brand Tablet PC

Google and Apple have stolen the thunder from Microsoft in the Smartphones business with the iPhone and Android. Most statistics show that the battle for the top spot is between Apple, Google, and BlackBerry-maker Research in Motion, despite Microsoft’s latest attempts with the upcoming Windows Mobile 7 OS

A tablet computer, whose emerging popularity has led to sales of more than one million IPads for Apple, is becoming another weak spot for Microsoft. First, the Redmond Company ditched the market without even showing a prototype, and then HP killed Windows off its upcoming Slate tablet, in exchange for Palm’s OS after purchasing the company. Dell has also opted for Android on its Streak Tablet PC

It’s unclear how this Microsoft shake-up would affect the company’s current mobile strategy. Microsoft needs to act like a small company and get products to market faster

The mobile phone market is up big for the first quarter of 2010 after sales declines during 2009, according to the latest sales figures. Smartphones are also growing faster each quarter as they continue to replace feature phones for many users. No surprise that the iPhone and Android-based phones saw the biggest gains, as the two platforms were the only two in the top five to gain market share year-over-year.

Global Smartphone sales grew even more than quarter with 54.3 million units sold for a 48.7 percent year-over-year increase. Smartphones now represent 17.3 percent of all mobile phone sales, up from 13.6 percent in first of quarter last year.

Android and IPhone OS market share improved considerably year over-year, with its 112 percent unit growth enough to move it up to 15.4 percent among Smartphones globally. However, a staggering 806 percent unit growth pushed Android well ahead of Windows Mobile into fourth place. Both iPhone OS and Android are poised to catch up to the BlackBerry platform in short order. Apple will have its work cut out for it to stay ahead of Android globally, even as the open source mobile platform has by accounts surpassed iPhone OS-based Smartphones domestically.

It’s a Surprise Google attempted to market the phone Online. Most Smartphone customers want to hold and experiment before buying. The Smartphone is a way of life for millions worldwide and it’s the fastest growing segment of the cell phone business. None of the major carriers nor Google would say which retailers or carrier stores are expected to carry the Nexus One in the U.S., although T-Mobile seems the most likely to do so.

Google started selling its Nexus One in January, unlocked at $529 or for $179 with a two-year contract with T-Mobile. Users could also get an unlocked version for AT&T’s network. The Concept of Unlocked has just not caught on here in the US

As it turns out, that the Google online store and Smartphones that access the Web are a great way to support Google’s core business of advertising, Google says they were not trying to make a profit on sales of the Nexus One hardware but released the device to support Google’s core business of advertising and search.

In marketing circles, Google’s decision, which comes less than six months after launching the online store, is fairly striking. The ramifications of the reversal will resonate in a U.S. Smartphone market that is still obviously dominated by the carriers.

Google says that On-line sales accounted for 200,000 phones. Because of the Subsidy by the carriers the price of the unlocked phone did not justify continuing online sales. At This Stage Google does not have the clout with the Cell phone carriers to get a subsidy on unlocked phones? Android the Mobile phone operating system owned by Google sold more cell phones in the first quarter than Apple, Microsoft or Blackberry and had 28% of the Smartphone Market.
