Logically speaking, if two wrongs don't make a right, then it should take at least three. Fortunately, we had at least that many: a supposed Nokia shareholders revolt? Bzzt. Apple and a game company with tiff?. And don't get me started on a Dell marketing stunt--who ever thought it would go right? If it is wrong is right, then the remains for Wednesday, February 16, 2011 do not want to be, uh, right.
Nokia plan b was only a joke all together(Engadget)
You may have heard something in the last couple days "Nokia plan B," an alleged by some shareholders the creator of Finland-based mobile phones that sought to wrest control from CEO Stephen Elop on the heels of the company's deal with Microsoft. As it turns out, the story, who also made the Wall Street Journal, was a false completed and absolute--the nine investors were indeed "a very bored engineer who really loves his iPhone." Hey, has anyone seen that industrial-strength of Doh!?
Capcom says Apple won't ever rebuked them above Smurfberry Cash(MacLife)
Village of Smurfs Capcom came under fire earlier this month for its undocumented feature of "leaving children parents wasting money on virtual goods". But after whispers that Capcom and Apple were sparring over the app, the game went on record saying that these reports were blatantly false and that, in fact, Apple has just decided to buy a tanker, smurfberries for 2 million dollars.
Accelerating Windows phone ecosystem(Windows phone Blog)
Speaking of undocumented features, Microsoft Brian Seitz took out time to respond to a comment on the blog of the company's Windows phone about why Windows Phone 7 Resets its software camera default settings on the launch: this is a feature, not a bug! But don't worry, Microsoft of trying it: "feedback from people like you has the team seriously looking to see if there is an optimal option." I'm thinking that perhaps Seitz had hoped that by reading this sentence could cause heads to explode, that I think it is a way to solve the problem.
AT&T CEO: Apps should work on many devices(USA Today)
He's back! After Tuesday's comments that the iPhone Verizon would AT&T CEO Randall Stephenson has returned to explain that the phone users must be able to buy an app once and use it on any platform. I'll give you one guess as to who should sell those apps. The name of the plan of Stephenson, if you are curious, "Hey, that around 30 percent Gig sounds pretty good, actually."
Two arrested in Dell marketing stunt(KXAN)
How do you know that your marketing prowess is a success? When the cops show and stop people. This happened to Dell Round Rock, Texas campus when a black-clad biker with a skull mask parade around the building carrying metal objects and tell people to "go to the lobby". Turns out it was an attempt to show the company's streak tablet, which apparently can be interfaced with Harley-Davidson. Then, I think we have shown that not even the threat of deadly danger can get anyone interested in Tablet PC from Dell.
