Samsung Surpasses Apple as World's Top Smartphone Seller

There was a time when nobody can compete with Nokia. Nokia was No. one supplier of cell phones.Then came Apple who surpasses Nokia and became the No. 1 supplier of the smart phones.Now the latest news is Samsung surpassed Apple by quadrupling its smartphone shipments. we heard the repost that Samsung 27.8 million smartphones this past quarter which is 23.8% market shares of the market.

Apple sold 17.1 million smartphones total of 14.6% of the market shares.Although profit margin of Apple is still higher than Samsung. I don't know which specific smartphone is sold by Samsung in bulk or it was Samsung Galaxy S II which was released in February 2011. But this biggest thing which I can think of boosting the sale of Samsung is Google Android Smartphone Software.

There is still battle going on between Apple and Samsung on patents. Nokia is also introducing Nokia Lumia 800 and Nokia Lumia 710 with Windows Mobile platform. So we will see the symbian software off the screen in future.

The Best Customer & Tech Support Company -"THE LOGITECH"

The best company I have ever dealt with regarding customer or technical support. I'm a loyal customer of Logitech more than 6 years and own more than 20 products from web cams, keyboards, gaming keyboards, Speakers, Surround systems, remotes, mice,joysticks etc etc.

Logitech Anywhere MX Mouse

They are always behind their products and never let you down.Their customer service is of Top Notch. I had a problem with my mouse. I had lost my warranty receipt but they sent me the new mouse as it was with in one year warranty without asking details. There are very few company who now a days trust word of mouth and Logitech is one of them. Wonderful!!!

Logitech Gaming Keyboard G110

The second time I dealt with them with a brand new Gaming Keyboard G110. The problem was back lighting was not was not even on Numeric- keypads. Without asking further they sent me the new keyboard with in a week.

Logitech Media Keyboard K200

Another good experience with Logitech. I ordered Logitech Media keyboard K200 which I cancelled in a minute after talking with customer support and changed the order to Logitech G110. The ordered was cancelled but they have sent me the keyboard and did not charge me a single penny. I still can't believe it.They are really excellent.

Will you buy and invest on new Apple Iphone 4S?

The new Apple Iphone 4S is coming this month. Apple starts taking Pre-order in Canada on Oct. 7, 2011. You can order it on line for a factory unlocked iPhone 4s on Apple Canada website.
 http://store.apple.com/ca/browse/home/shop_iphone/family/iphone

Availabe in Black & White colours in 16gb for $649, 32gb for $ 749 and $ 64gb for 849 before tax. Most of us already have an iphone. The question is are you really in need of upgrade?

Well for some Apple fans who got the money to buy will collect all items whether or not they need it or not or for just a technology geek or status symbol whatever. Some will buy for just Steve Jobs demise.

Im happy with my Nokia N8 and not thinking of any upgrade soon unless find a good deal in new models but will always prefers Nokia, Samsung or HTC in order of preference over Apple.

So will you buy new Apple Iphone 4S?

Bad Canada Post Service

I'm having constantly bad expereince with Canada Post Service. First of all their insurance is totally bogus as you can't claim if its reached damaged to the buyer or if parcel is not brokem from outside. They are just making a lot of money by their fake insurance policy.

If you have insurance and package is lost they will ask you for original purchase receipt and reject your claim if you don't have the receipt. They don't ask about receipt when doing insurance.

So please don't insured unless you have the receipt or proof of purchase. I have their small business venture card which can be used for a very small discount to ship in US and Canada only.Did Canada Post really sucks?

I have lost my several packages sent to Asia which were never received after a year and Canada Post can't even talk with you if you don't have insurance.

I asked Canada Post they should have a facility to show them original item before sending it to verify it which they reject.They don't care and not taking any responsibilities on the lost package. I must say either delivered the parcel or payback the shipping cost back to the customer if you can't deliver it or lost the letter or parcel simple is that! It doesn't work either you have insured the package.

Do you have any bad expereince or its only me whining against them?
I know Purolator is also a part of Canada Post.

As I'm a small capacity seller which postal carrier you will recommend to send parcel?
Like FedEx, UPS, TNT, DHL but they are bit expensive.
Please let me know if you are on the same boat or else.
