Apple provokes RIM verbally by Zivka Deleva

Usually I am not used to reading or seeing how two gentlemen, leaders in the same field start a verbal fight over the media. The provoker this time was the Chief Executive Officer of Apple Inc. who addressed some not personal insults towards his rival in the Research in Motion – Mr. Jim Balsillie, but remarks on one of their product. Steve Jobs of Apple three days ago said that RIM’s new tablet called PlayBook is already “dead in arrival”. Jobs compared its rivals gadget with theirs iPad. PlayBook is seven-inch screen tablet, and iPad’s three inches more. Apple’s leader didn’t forget to mention that theirs iPhone is far better than ! RIM’s BlackBerry. I understand when someone can’t control himself of saying only good words, but I still think that it is better when someone else says that for you instead of you in person. I am surprised how come such an experienced CEO as Jobs, fell so down to provoke like that. But Jobs didn’t left without an answer. RIM’s CEO Jim Balsillie replied to him that he was only barbing and that that was only an issue of the distorted field for the company. "For those of us who live outside of Apple's distortion field, we know that seven-inch tablets will actually be a big portion of the market" – Balsillie said. BlackBerry and iPhone are competeng among themselves in the last year. According to some analyses, they are pretty close with the selling effect. The concurrence in this market is big, as we know how many companies join the smartphone market. As far as the tablets market, iPad is still at the first place.
