Has Samsung Created The Apple Killer- What does that mean for Home Business?

September 26, 2011 by Chuck | 1 Comment

I’m very fortunate… for my birthday recently I received a tablet computer as a present from my family!

At present, the most popular tablet computer is one by Apple, but sooner or later there’s going to come an “Apple Killer” in both the phone and tablet computer markets.

Who are the likely competitors?

At the moment, Windows 8 is supposed be coming out with an entirely new GUI based on “apps” or “icons” (where’d they get that idea I wonder?!)

My bet is that the greatest potential for the Apple killer comes from a Samsung product. In addition to naming Samsung, let’s go further and state that the Samsung Galaxy phone and tablet operating the latest Android software. Folks using a smart phone probably really don’t need another data plan so a wifi capable Samsung costing under $400 is a very viable competitor in my opinion.

If you’re a blogger, network marketer, copywriter, IT Security person, tech support person or in related fields that don’t custom software that’s not available as an “app”, I’m convinced the main things you need are…

1. A Bluetooth keyboard if you type extensively

2. A protective case and stand

3. A word processing app that will let you sync your documents or other files with (in my case) Google Docs or – if you prefer – another online storage service.

4. Any apps necessary to connect to your blogs, your social network, etc.

A headset to let you talk over Skype, Google Talk, via WiFi or to use a dictation application and – if you’re like me – y0u’re “in business”.

I know of home business people using this simple set up to start their own business and keep it running.  There’s no need to consider yourself “locked in” to a brand that might have seemed like your “only choice” in the past. Samsung and the Android platform are poised to create note only a competition in the area of price, but also the area of functionality. Home business people like us are finally in a position to benefit!
