Issue of smartphones on the BlackBerry 10 transferred to next year


Bad news for fans of the Canadian production of RIM (if any still remain). Smartphones on the latest BlackBerry OS 10 will not at the end of this year, as expected, but only in the following. If you're lucky - in the first quarter. RIM has officially informed about this the other day in the announcement of financial results of the quarter.

What happens to the RIM, except as a complete collapse is not called. Since mid-2008 exchange rate of its stock lost 95% of the cost. That is, in fact, the company has depreciated almost completely. In the last quarter, RIM has lost a net loss of over half a billion dollars ($ 518 million). After the news of the shares immediately fell another 14%. In the near future planned layoffs for 5,000 people.

The only glimmer of hope that remains for RIM - is the latest smartphones in the BlackBerry system 10, based on the architecture of QNX. In RIM announced that they appear only in the first quarter of 2013. First, they were expected later this year, which was also too late, according to many experts. Watch out for iPhone 5, and many new products on the Jelly Bean, and RIM will be even harder to win back the backlog.

But there is a small spoon of honey: in the last quarter of the number of BlackBerry users increased slightly. It grew in all regions except North America, and now stands at 78 million, but whether it is to somehow help the perishing Titanic telephone industry - that is the question.

Smartphones can cause the owner of the phantom vibration - study


Smartphone users, such as the Blackberry or iPhone, may have obsessive feelings of phantom vibrations from the constant stress caused by the devices.

According to the Telegraph, with reference to results of research conducted by British scientists, the owners of smart phones experience greater stress than usual because of the need to constantly check his e-mail accounts and social networks.

As a result, they begin to feel the "phantom" vibrations - wrongly users think that the phone starts vibrating in their pocket, allegedly accepting a message.

According to the author of the study, the number of people using smartphones is growing very quickly, so "we are inclined to believe that the increase in the number experiencing stress due to the virtual social activity" - says researcher Richard Balding from the University of Worcester.

The results of a scientific experiment will be presented at the Conference on Organizational Psychology in Chester. At the same time in a scientific experiment was attended by 100 volunteers - students and employees of various companies, from public sector organizations to retailers. Study participants filled out questionnaires and were specific psychometric tests to stress.

From these results, researchers concluded that the use of smart phones is associated with different levels of stress identified by the respondents, and this stress is not related to their work. But in this case it is directly linked to the number of checks received messages on smartphones: the people with the highest level of stress felt "phantom" vibrations - they thought that the device has SMS.

Scientists believe that in most cases people use modern mobile devices, to be aware of what is happening at work. However, regular use of these gadgets and close monitoring of the updates-mail, receive messages and stay in social networks creates more pressure on the user.

Author of the study believe that employers should be encouraged to temporarily disable mobile workers as well as under constant stress, employees are unlikely to thrive.
