Analysis says ipad will lead to death of mobile phone network

Galen Gruman, Galen Gruman, InfoWorld Executive editor of the US it website, said today that Apple's ipad tablet will gradually replace the iphone, and that the iphone-led mobile-networking industry will die. The following is a summary of the article: the ipad replaces the iphone Steve Jobs for years and has dreamed of launching a tablet that can be as cool and useful as a science fiction device. With the launch of the ipad, dreams are finally coming true. Ironically, the launch of the ipad will take the iphone by the spotlight. As a revolutionary product from Apple in 2007, the iphone still has a far-reaching impact on wireless, mobile and computing.　　And with the iphone's halo fading, the phone network will not be the same. In addition to the lack of cameras, the ipad is capable of completing all of the iphone's functions, and with a larger screen, the ipad will be able to offer richer applications and a more compelling media experience.　　When you're out of the house and have to deal with some of the day-to-day basics, this product can also be used to replace notebooks to send and receive emails, browse Web pages, create documents, spreadsheets and presentations, read electronic books, and use applications to work on tasks such as orders. As a mobile phone, the iphone is worse; as a media device, it is a bit outdated, although its performance is excellent. Although the ipad cannot call, it is more cool and more efficient than the iphone when browsing the Web, emailing, running games and apps. Because the AT&T's network performance has been criticized, coupled with the iphone's own phone flaw is maddening, give a lot of opponents to exploit. This makes it an ideal combination to use another reliable mobile phone service and use the ipad to access the Internet.　　And the ipad can either use Wi-Fi or access the At&t 3G network. So users may soon abandon the iphone and use the same features on the ipad.　　As a result, the iphone is just a mobile phone, users do not have to the occasional demand for the internet to pay the At&t 30 dollars a month monthly fee, only for the ipad to buy 15 dollars or 30 dollars a month package, and no need to sign a contract. I suspect that most iphone users will not renew their contracts with at&t when the existing contracts expire. They will instead buy a cheaper, more reliable mobile phone. The iphone is an ipod touch with a webcam that might even replace the ipod. Because small, intelligent devices such as the iphone are still handy in crowded places, there are users willing to use it to calculate tips or to view shopping lists, but the ipod touch is fullEnough of this demand.　　So using the iphone as an ipod touch can make a good addition to the ipad, and the user is more willing to accept it because it's much cheaper to use. You may think that my idea is exaggerated, but I do mean it.　　It was only 3 years since the iphone was released that it had revolutionized the entire handset market and eclipsed the original cool products of BlackBerry. The end of the mobile phone network iphone can change the internet and smartphones overnight, and I believe the ipad will have that ability. But this time the victim is the iphone.　　and the Palm pre and Android are all going to end. Just released in early 2007, the iphone focused on networking and information, not apps. Jobs didn't even think it was necessary to develop any apps, and HTML and JavaScript were enough. And mobile networks have emerged, and the size of the iphone and interactive design sites have sprung up. Windows Mobile and BlackBerry have been on the market for 10, but it was not until the iphone appeared that the phone network was born. Today, many sites are dedicated to the mobile version, and some companies even specifically to provide the site's mobile phone optimization business.　　The pre and droid also hooked up to the mobile phone network, but the iphone is the real creator of the field. Within 1 years, the way iphone users read the New York Times has shifted from browsers to iphone apps. Being able to browse regular Web pages is no longer a cool feature, but a bit lame.　　Since the iphone swept the market, many websites have launched a mobile version, which is not surprising, but because of the small size of the Web page features are very limited, so soon it will lose its appeal. The iphone's smaller screen is better suited for some specific tasks than browsing all the pages, and the fact that the iphone apps have been launched by major websites has also been reflected. So 15 months after the iphone was launched, Apple released its App store and iphone SDK (software Development Kit). Mr Jobs initially thought that mobile networks could provide functionality similar to apps, but he was clearly wrong.　　Although he did not admit it, his behavior was acknowledged. In the next 1 years, there are thousands of iphone applications in the application store, download more than 1 billion times, 18 months later, download volume is a breakthrough 2 billion mark. The big media are flooded with stories of the iphone's creation. For a time, there was a consensus among major industries that offering content and services through iphone apps, or at least developing iphone-friendly mobile sites, would not only attract popularity, but could even make up for the loss of the Internet through mobile services. The television and newspaper industry are the most prominent, and aviation and banking industries have notCan immune. In the spring of 2009, Apple upgraded the iphone OS, making it possible for application developers to earn revenue through registration fees and sell goods directly through application.　　This time, a lot of industries quickly follow suit, while the development of mobile phone network is canceled, because the mobile phone network can not provide payment mode, and can not obtain the additional value of user location. Today, the role of mobile phone applications has gone beyond the mobile network. But many sites are still plagued by the iphone-they have neither customized Web sites nor introduced applications. But with the ipad, there's no need to do that anymore.　　Web sites can be restored to the original, and applications can be closer to software in Windows and Mac OS X. With internet surfing moving from the iphone to the ipad, what is the reason for mobile networks to continue to develop?　　Neither the BlackBerry nor the Windows Mobile phone can provide a good Internet experience, and the droid and pre users are not enough to fill the gap created by the ipad's transfer process.　　Rim unexpectedly benefited. Therefore, the ipad will replace most iphones in 2011, and lead to Google's Chrome OS abortion, and even the development of the iphone killer, so that the "war" into no one or no attention to the embarrassing situation. In this case, RIM will not be affected by the slightest impact. BlackBerry has never developed a mobile phone network or mobile app. So even if the Internet is no longer on the phone, the BlackBerry will not be affected. After all, for most users, BlackBerry is just a device to make calls and send and receive information. BlackBerry users rarely surf the internet, and they don't seem to have that kind of demand. As iphone users move to the ipad, a device dedicated to calling and sending and receiving information will be a good choice.　　But because it doesn't cater to the iphone, BlackBerry is also not benefiting from the iphone bandwagon. To add, I mentioned earlier that when a user buys an ipad, it will cancel the iphone data package and replace it with a traditional phone. In fact, they are also likely to change to a BlackBerry, but depending on how much information users send and receive each day at a taxi or conference table. (Ding Macro)
