Apple iPhone will deter competitors

Apple iPhone will deter competitors

Apple goes on the offensive: the future will be better protected against copying the iPhone - if necessary in court. The first step towards tougher is made, Apple has secured a broad patent.

Apple CEO Steve Jobs and 24 other people were given a 358-page patent awarded, announced the U.S. Patent Office in Alexandria (Virginia with). The breaking point: The patent includes the so-called multi-touch functionality. This means that the iPhone will be controlled by one or more fingers on a touch-sensitive screen.

This Apple tries to ward off the competition, offering little by little phones with touch-sensitive display. Especially since Apple has sold in the quarter before Christmas because of the economic crisis much less iPhones than in the preceding months.

The U.S. patent number 7479949 also includes the feature that turns the iPhone's screen when the device is tilted. Furthermore, in the protection document describes in detail the functions to control the music player, the text entry and other functions of the touch screen.

For the presentation of the iPhone in January 2007, Jobs announced that the extensive protection in the device technologies used by patents. Last Apple interim CEO Tim Cook in the presentation of the latest quarterly figures had indicated that Apple would defend themselves with the help of patents for a "plundering of intellectual property."

The remark was directed by unanimous vote of observers against Apple's competitors Palm, which had to be introduced in January Smartphone Palm Pre. The Pre had then caused a great stir and was voted the best innovation on the pioneering electronics trade show Consumer Electronics Show. Explosive Details: Developed had the Palm Pre with Jon Rubinstein, a former Apple size. Rubinstein also serves as the brains behind the success of the iPod.

The Palm has pre like the iPhone, the multi-touch feature to zoom in, for example, a browser page and can. The dispute with Palm seems inevitable - especially since Apple has the patent in a feature to protect the iPhone itself still not supported, but already the Pre: It's about touch-sensitive surface away from the screen. These toys had integrated the prototype of Apple's competitors already. If Apple pulls here in court, it would be exciting.

The CeBIT 2009 show: The show is an exhibition especially for SMEs. Even the character of Congress has increased. But: Important segments of the high-tech industry, especially mobile communications companies and companies in the consumer feel at the Cebit not the right place and put on other shows.

"It was a big mistake that the Cebit has allowed the rise of Barcelona," criticized an industry insider. In Barcelona the last few years will take place just weeks before the Cebit the accuracy of the mobile industry, the Mobile World Congress, which has become the world's most important industry event. The Cebit-makers failed to take into account the growing importance of this segment account.

The mobile phone industry is so gone, and also in terms of entertainment does not play the Cebit, the first violin: In Germany IFA IFA is the leading exhibition dealing with the CES in Las Vegas an exciting head-to-head race for the slimmest TV and delivers sharpest images.

In a major Asian electronics company, which earlier this year not have a booth at the Cebit, said: "We have not reached at the Cebit our customers. At the IFA are the people because they are interested in, especially for television - and then see also the other products. "

In an international crisis year to consider the company precisely which trade shows are really necessary. The decision was often against the Cebit - this year there were only 4300 exhibitors, 20 percent less than in the previous year. The unlucky number 20 seems to be this year's Cebit about: This exhibition and visitors also shrank by 20 percent. Overall, just wanted to 400,000 visitors admired the new techniques.

Of course, hurts the decline, "said Ernst Raue, member of the German Cebit organizer Messe AG, at the close of the fair. Information on lost revenue, he did not, but the declines could make for delicate holes in the company's balance sheet. Rough yet moved to a positive conclusion: the Cebit is the rock in the surf, many companies are left Hanover with full order books.

The upheaval is under way: Stronger than ever, will the Cebit specialize in the following year on IT solutions for companies. At the same public appeal should booth for the professional world will suffer. The high-tech show is a shortened to five days then, Cebit-Sunday falls away - thus, the cost for the exhibitors continue to fall. The Cebit will return to its past as a business and convention and trade show. That will not happen automatically, is aware of the CeBIT organizers hope.
