Pelo menos de acordo com a candidata Dilma Roussef; no trecho no texto de Rolf Kuntz:
Alguns dias atrás eu falava sobre apostar em celulares Android do que no Iphone. Neste artigo (em inglês) da revista Wired, eles explicam melhor esta teoria:
“The short history of the computer industry is dominated by two well-known stories: How mainframe makers failed to take the personal computer seriously until it was too late, and how Apple refused to license its innovative new operating system and ended up ceding the market to Microsoft. Unless Apple learns from its mistakes it’s going to end up with a Macintosh-like minority market share again — in mobile.”
Claro que, o próprio texto elucida, uma empresa do porte da Apple, tão decidida a manter certo posicionamento de mercado, pode adquirir atributos consideráveis, conquistados com experiência e estratégia:
As for hardware costs and performance, Apple’s component suppliers are the market leaders. Even its “unique” ARM-based CPU uses the same instruction set as the CPUs in its competitor’s phones. For now, at least, Apple is on the right hardware train. And if the time ever comes to make a change, Apple is uniquely experienced in switching CPU architectures in a way that’s mostly transparent to customers.
As reflexões interessantes se resumem aqui:
“(…)hardware diversity is not driving Android sales. The magic formula is simple: quality + availability. Android is ascending in the market because it’s good, it’s available where people want to buy it, and it runs on the networks people want to use.
(…)
The only way for Apple to eliminate the distribution and marketing advantage currently enjoyed by Android is to make sure that everywhere an Android phone is for sale, there’s an iPhone sitting right next to it that will work on the same network.”
Esta história ainda vai longe e eu vou char muito interessante testemunhá-la. Só espero não preferir o lado perdedor denovo…
