BIG Plans for 2014 Apple`s CEO Tim Cook said to employees.
BIG Plans for 2014 Apple`s CEO Tim Cook said to employees.
WorldWide tech & Science. Francisco De Jesùs.
Apple`s CEO Tim Cook sent an internal memo to all company employees, walking through what all the staff have reached in this almost ending year 2013.
We think that one of the most important achievements made by Apple is the deal with China Mobile for to launch the iPhone 5S/5C to be available in stores next January 17th,2014. China Mobile is the largest cellphones network carrier worldwide with 763+ million suscribers.
And second the 50 billionth download on the App Store.
For 2014 we expect the iWatch and maybe a hardware display of iTV.
Below the Official memo:
Team,
This holiday season, tens of millions of people around the world, from all walks of life, are experiencing Apple products for the first time. Those moments of surprise and delight are magical, and they’re all made possible by your hard work. As many of us prepare to celebrate the holidays with our loved ones, I’d like to take a moment to reflect on what we’ve achieved together over the past year.
First and foremost, we introduced industry-leading products in each of our major categories in 2013, showing the breadth and depth of innovation at Apple. We extended our lead in the smartphone market with iPhone 5s; launched iOS 7, an extraordinarily ambitious project; released OS X Mavericks for free to our customers; introduced the iPad Air and the iPad mini with Retina display; and this week began shipping the Mac Pro from a manufacturing facility in Austin, Texas. We also marked our 50 billionth download on the App Store – a milestone no one could have predicted we would reach so quickly.
Together we’ve shown the world that innovation at Apple goes beyond our products to the way we do business and how we give back to our community. This year, Apple raised and donated tens of millions of dollars for important charities and relief efforts like Red Cross aid to typhoon victims in the Philippines, and we continue to be the largest contributor to (PRODUCT)RED, supporting the Global Fund in its fight against the spread of AIDS in Africa. Just a few weeks ago, Jony Ive led an unprecedented effort that brought money and awareness to eliminating the transmission of AIDS from mother to child.
And finally, Apple is standing up for what we believe is right. We know that equality and diversity make our company and our society stronger, so we’ve urged the U.S. Congress to support workplace protections against discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity. We are also laser focused on our contribution to several environmental initiatives and we will increase our efforts even more in this area in the future.
We have a lot to look forward to in 2014, including some big plans that we think customers are going to love. I am extremely proud to stand alongside you as we put innovation to work serving humankind’s deepest values and highest aspirations. I consider myself the luckiest person in the world for the opportunity to work at this amazing company with all of you.
Happy Holidays,

Forecast: 2013: Androids tablets leading worldwide market share, says IDC. Chart.
Forecast: 2013: Androids tablets leading worldwide market share, says IDC. Chart.

According to the latest forecast from the International Data Corporation (IDC) Worldwide Quarterly Tablet Tracker, worldwide tablet shipments are expected to reach 221.3 million units in 2013, down slightly from a previous forecast of 227.4 million but still 53.5% above 2012 levels. Shipment growth is forecast to slow to 22.2% year over year in 2014 to a total of 270.5 million units. By 2017, annual market growth will slow to single-digit percentages and shipments will peak at 386.3 million units, down from the previous forecast of 407 million units.
One key factor to watch going forward is the mix of small vs. large tablets. The market has trended toward small tablets in a big way over the last 24 months, but the rise of large phones could well push consumers back toward larger tablets as the difference between a 6-inch smartphone and a 7-inch tablet isn't great enough to warrant purchasing both. Apple's launch of the iPad Air, a much thinner and lighter version of its 9.7-inch product, could herald another market transition back toward larger screens, presuming consumers are willing to pay the higher costs associated with bigger screens.
"In some markets consumers are already making the choice to buy a large smartphone rather than buying a small tablet, and as a result we've lowered our long-term forecast," said Tom Mainelli, Research Director, Tablets. "Meanwhile, in mature markets like the U.S. where tablets have been shipping in large volumes since 2010 and are already well established, we're less concerned about big phones cannibalizing shipments and more worried about market saturation."
A transition toward larger tablets could be a positive development for Windows tablets, which generally benefit from a larger screen area. Even so, Windows-based tablets are not expected to steal share from tablets running iOS and Android until the latter part of the forecast.
"For months, Microsoft and Intel have been promising more affordable Windows tablets and 2-in-1 devices," said Jitesh Ubrani, Research Analyst, Worldwide Tablet Tracker. "This holiday season, we expect a huge push for these devices as both companies flex their marketing muscles; however we still don't expect them to gain much traction. We're already halfway through the holiday quarter, and though there have been some relatively high-profile launches from the likes of Dell, HP, and Lenovo, we've yet to see widespread availability of these devices, making it difficult for Windows to gain share during this crucial period."

A new NEXUS smartphone spotted ?

A new Google NEXUS smartphone spotted ?
Google to celebrate, put up a video of the Android KitKat statue's unveiling at Google HQ (the video has already been yanked) However thanks to phonedog we have the above images.
We can see a man and woman taking photos of the statue on two rectangular devices. The woman is clearly holding a Nexus 4, but the device in the man's hands is clearly not the N4. It appears to be larger and has horizontal Nexus branding, just like the backside of the new Nexus 7. We can also see what appears to be an LG logo at the bottom of the phone's rear.

Lionel Messi , the first player in history to win three Golden Boots.
Lionel Messi , the first player in history to win three Golden Boots.
Barcelona striker Lionel Messi , who today received his third Golden Boot , credited as the league 's top scorer in the 2012-13 season europas , said that now do not think about achieving it for the fourth time .
" ( The Golden Shoe ) was never my goal when I was well , let alone now " , said Messi , who will be away from the pitch for about month and a half because of a torn hamstring in his left leg .
Rosario player has become the first to achieve three Golden Boots - the latter by the 46 goals he scored in 32 league games last season , and today received the award from the hands of exazulgrana Hristo Stoichkov , winner of this award - sharing with the Mexican Hugo Sánchez- in season 1989-90.
In the ceremony , which was held in the Old Factory Estrella Damm Barcelona , Messi has been embraced by Barca president , Sandro Rosell , first team coach Gerardo ' Tata ' Martino , and team-mates as Carles Puyol, Xavi Hernandez, Gerard Pique, Cesc Fabregas, Adriano Correia and José Manuel Pinto .
They dedicated " this and previous " Golden Balls - " without my teammates would not have achieved anything ," he underlined , and also his family , " who loves me and has been there in the most ugly " .
Moments like that are living far away from the pitch due to a new hamstring injury . " Now I have to strengthen the entire body so I would not miss anything and can play quietly , but that , as I say, depends on the above " , has commented on the matter .
In any case , Messi prefer to take it slow the recovery process . Ensures no marked a return date , although he admitted that "if all goes well " , the return to the court would be to Reyes when Elche Barcelona will host the eighteenth day of the season .
With this third Golden Boot , the tip Barca is left alone in front of this classification , beating German Gerard Muller , the Portuguese Eusebio , Fernando Gomes and Cristiano Ronaldo , Romanian Dudu Georgescu , the Scotsman Ally McCoist and Thierry Henry , all with two .
The first was won in the 2009-10 season when he scored 38 goals ) and second in 2011-12 , which amounted to no less than 50 goals .
Indeed, the goals scored fifty two seasons ago are a record in big leagues because nobody ever reached such a figure in a major tournament regularity .
The tyranny of Leo Messi in world football over the last five years is credited with four Golden Balls has won in a row (2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012 ) . And in this 2013 aims to achieve the fifth , which would confirm as the best player in history of football .
Their greed knows no bounds. Pichichi Spanish League in the 2009-2010 seasons , 2011-12 and 2012-13 , has also been the top scorer in the Champions League the last four years (from 2009-2013 ) .
It is by 14 points and with Van Nistelrooy and Altatafini , the top scorer in a season of Champions League ( 2011-12 ) and the only one who has scored 5 goals in a game for the continental showpiece ( that season at Bayer Leverkusen).
The 91 goals scored in 2012 , between Barcelona and the Argentina , is a figure from another planet , and next target now is to beat the Spanish Raul Gonzalez as top scorer in the Champions League . The exmadridista managed 71 goals in his career and Messi , at 26 , already has 65 .
If their background is unparalleled , his resume is also impressive group . With the club has won 3 Champions Leagues, two Club World Cups , two European Super Cups , 6 League , 2 Copa del Rey and Supercopa of Spain in June .
Lacks only win the Copa America and the World Cup with the Albiceleste , with which they won the world under-20 (2005 ) and Olympic champion in Beijing 2008.
