Android in advance on iPad

Apple’s iPad may finally be losing market share to Google Android tablets

Sales of tablet computers running Google’s Android software rose more than ten-crease in the last year, as new records suggest that Apple’s iPad may at last be facing serious competition.

Products made by Motorola, Samsung, Acer & others have been greeted with some critical acclaim but have failed to make a serious dent on the dominance of Apple’s iPad. According to analysis by plan Analytics, however, Samsung’s latest generation of Galaxy tablets has led a rise in Android tablet sales & pushed the iPad’s market share last quarter to 67 per cent, down from 96 per cent.

Android-powered tablet computers accounted for 27 percent of global sales during the last quarter, jumping from 2.3 percent a year earlier, plan Analytics said.

How Much You Know Anout "The cloud"

When the Apple iPhone 4S & Amazon Kindle Fire tablet debuted this fall, the tech press blogged breathlessly about how these new devices harness 'the cloud.' Menacing as this hazy tech term may sound, the cloud is actually a regular part of daily digital life. In fact, gadget analysts expect this metaphorical cloud to envelop more of the world in coming years.

Cloud computing describes when a personal computer relies on distant servers themselves powerful computers & known collectively as the cloud for certain tasks & services, often in one of two ways.

The first: data storage. When you post a photo to Facebook, the company's servers hold on to that image. This lets you share the picture with friends, view it from any of your electronic devices, & even delete the photo from your PC without fear of losing it forever. The image lives in the cloud now.

The second common use is more forward looking. Those yonder servers can help your computer or phone do things that it is not powerful enough to tackle on its own. For example, iPhones & Android smart phones offer a free app called Google Translate. Speak into the phone [Excuse me, where's the nearest bathroom?] & within seconds the app will translate your sentence into any of 58 languages. Modern phones don't have processors powerful enough to translate your voice quickly & accurately. Instead, the app turns your request into a sound file, sends it up to the cloud, & lets Google's supercomputers do the heavy lifting.

Because of this dependence on far off servers, Google Translate & other cloud services only work when you have an Internet connection.
