If you were thinking that Android and iPhone has killed the Blackberry, then you are wrong because Blackberry is showing some strong Q2 results. RIM has announced that a record 12 Million Blackberry devices were shipped during Q2. Most of us were thinking that Blackberry is gone but no, they are still in the game. The total revenue is $4.62 Billion, which is up 31% year over year, and earning per share is $1.46, which is up 76% year-over-year. Total net income is a huge $796.7 million. RIM's Jim Balsillie said "We expect a continuation of this momentum in the third quarter as we extend the rollout of new products including the BlackBerry Torch into additional markets and benefit from heavy promotional activities and increasing customer demand as we head into the holiday buying season,". I think RIM big boys are going to buy some Palm Islands in Dubai now !

If you are a Sprint or Verizon customer, and you are also a big fan of Windows Phone 7, then this might be a bad news for you. Yesterday Verizon said that they will not be carrying any WP7 device until 2011. Sprint customers were happy that they are getting it, but not anymore, because Microsoft Senior Product Manager Greg Sullivan told CNET that:

"For the worldwide market, the vast majority of phones are GSM phones, so we focused on GSM first and then plan to deliver an update that will have great CDMA support in the first half of 2011. That's device availability in the first half and we're very confident of that. That's probably a conservative estimate."

So it means no sign of WP7 powered CDMA device this year. As Verizon said that they will carry it next year, so hopefully Sprint will be carrying it too. But don't worry Verizon and Sprint folks, you guys have Androids, a lot of them… and more coming !

Intel is the leading manufacturer of processors but besides processors, Intel is working on notebooks as well. Intel has decided to revamp its Clamshell Classmate by turning it into a more rugged notebook that can work in harsh environment with ease.

Rugged notebooks have always been popular because they provide you with damage protection and besides that, they allow you to work in harsh conditions as well. Up until now much of rugged PCs have been dominated by Panasonic's Toughbooks, but this may change soon. The new enhanced Clamshell Classmate will provide you protection from desktop drops and rough handling. In order to provide further protection this laptop has built-in crush zones and air cushions around fragile areas such as corners or the display.

Besides that, Clamshell Classmate comes with water resistant keyboard, display, and touchpad so you won't have to worry about water spills because this improved model can take up to 100cc of juice spill. In addition, this laptop will protect you from bacteria, mold, and other microorganisms because it has a antimicrobial coating on its keyboard and touchpad. Besides improved damage, water and bacteria protection Clamshell Classmate have also got decent specs to offer. This notebook comes with power-efficient motherboard, 45nm Atom CPU, and six-cell battery that can provide whole day usage with just a single charge. Additional hardware specifications remain undisclosed.

There's no need to mention that Google is most used search engine today, but what about others? Google might be dominant search engine but that doesn't stop the other search engines from competing. Market share has changed a bit and it seems that Bing is now the second most used search engine in the US.

That's right, Bing has just overtaken Yahoo and now it's in second place as the most popular search engine. We can say that Bing has gained great popularity and its popularity rose from 13.6% to 13.9% in August. As for Yahoo, its market share declined from 14.3 percent to 13.1 percent, and after that drop, Bing has overtaken it.

As for Google, its market share grew from 64.2% to 65.0% percent in July. This might be a huge success for Bing and Microsoft but even if Bing is second it still isn't much competition with Google. Even if Yahoo and Bing combined their market share it still wouldn't match even half of Google's share. This is a great success for Microsoft, but we have to ask ourselves, what's next?

Despite this amazing success, Google still stands as the dominant search engine, and we can only wonder what makes us use Google more? Will Microsoft go for number one and will it try to overtake Google? Its possible, but we're honestly doubting that will happen anytime soon.

With every good news, we always have a bad news too. A few hours ago, we told you that Samsung officially announced the Galaxy Tab for AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile and Sprint, that's the good news, and now the bad news. Bad news is that the U.S Galaxy Tab is missing voice capabilities, means you can't make any phone call. Now this is more than a heart attack for people who are looking forward to the Galaxy Tab. I think then no one will going to buy it from a mobile carrier, because if they can't make a phone call, then what's the value of� a 2-year contract. It's better to get a WiFi only version. Another bad news is that the Sprint Samsung Galaxy Tab is coming out without 4G, which is a very bad news for all Sprint customers.

By the way that hurts , what do you think folks?
