Has the CES lost its charm

We all know of the prestigious CES held every January of every year. This year the CES was held in Las Vegas, Nevada and was reported to be one of the largest faade of mobile technology ever to have come across in the world as we know it. But in the midst of all the new devices and gadgets that have been introduced in the market, do new companies with better products stand a chance to be noticed? The main problem that many companies have noted is the great time interval between each CES show. So much progress is done in a single year that it is very difficult to showcase it in such a relatively small occasion. Smaller less known companies stand a great chance to remain unnoticed by the public eye as a consequence. Even bigger companies argue that the CES should also host shows at a quarterly interval for the sake of the game. What fault is it if a company introduces a phone early in the year that is remarkable, only to see that another rival company copied it at the end of the year and added a few new features.

Reliance to launch cheapest internet activated phones in India

Reliance India , one of the largest mobile service providers in the country has set up a scheme to launch the cheapest internet activated handset in the world, in India . The set will only cost $12 which is roughly Rs480 in their local currency. This is compared to the currently cheapest internet activated phone in the country which is valued at $35 or Rs1400. People that read this might think that is expensive yet because of the contracted phones that they can get for free. But with those plans the user ends up paying a cost much higher than the phones original cost over a 2 year period. This phone in the other hand will be contract free and ready to use on any network around the world. This will provide a much higher market to the company as average pay rates in the country are lower than in US and Europe . Hopefully this will also make other companies lower their prices in the country because of higher competition. But the results cannot be certain as yet as it has just been launched this year.
