Week 16 Verizon's New Phone Comes Out

The new Samsung Galaxy Nexus comes out tomorrow. Apparently this is a big deal. It's price is 299.99 which is a little much for me. They don't have much on why it's such a big deal. It's probably going to be like all the other Android phones.

Week 15 iPad Loses Sales


iPad sales are lower than expected in December. Many believe this is due to the Fire and other inexpenxive tabelets. Apple overcharges for the iPad anyway. It may offer more than the Fire but its almost three times the price. No thanks Apple, I'm getting the Fire for xmas!

Week 14 Netflix Loses Bigtime



Since Netflix decided to raise its prices earlier this year, they have lost 11 million customers. They said the price raises were necessary, it looks like a mistake now. It is reported that they will lose $100 million next year. Yikes! Good job guys.

Week 13 Black Friday Online Sales Leap 26%


U.S. shoppers spent a whopping $826 million this year online. That's 26% more than last year. I think this may be due to rediculous lines and how dangerous stores on Black Friday have become. It just seems easier to do it online. You can get just as good of deals by sitting on an online waitlist at your house.

Week 11 Hard Disk Shortage?



Apparently there is a huge shortage on Hard disks. Reports say that we could run out as soon as the end of November. This is due to severe flooding in Thailand where half of HDD's are made. Orders have gone out for about 180 million HDDs for next quarter and only 100-120 million will ship out. I havn't even heard anything about this until now. They also say there is no solution in sight. What will we do without HDD's!?! Better go buy new CPU's now while you still can.

Week 10 iPhones Battery Sucks!

Due to the new iOS 5, iPhone battery life has been "lower-than-expected" according to Apple. They say they are trying to find the bug and fix it. Gotta love Smartphone battery life. I couldn't imagine that my battery life was even shorter than now.
