Two very interesting developments in the mobile phone market. Alright, alright; one is an actual development and the other is a speculation. Here goes.
Garmin has developed their own mobile phone, that too a very advanced one. It’s called the “ne” and it is packed with loads of features. Firstly, it has in-built GPS technology, as you would expect from Garmin. Secondly, it has an in-built Google search application. So, if you want to search for a lingerie shop nearby, (why does it always have to be a coffee shop? 
) you can use Google search and get results quickly. It is slim, slick, has a touchscreen, has a brilliant mobile web browser, and a personal navigator which will direct you, wherever you want to go.
Now, coming to the speculation part. Rumor has it that Dell is working on developing a mobile phone of its own, which might be a cutting-edge stuff, just like the Apple iPhone. Some insiders even say that Dell poached Ron Garriques, who was the head of handsets in Motorola, to head the team which is developing its own mobile phone. Might be true, might be false; but these kinds of rumors make this industry a happening one.

I’m one of those poor souls that can’t afford to buy Google’s shares and believe me I’m kicking myself for being one. Especially, after reading this report from New York Times.
2007 was a great year for technology funds with returns over 17% and it could be even better in 2008. Especially, Google’s shares could make a huge difference in your portfolio. To give you an idea, a single share from Google will cost you $690 as of now. It is expected to go up to a whopping $900 this year, making it one of the costliest stocks in the market. Wait; why is this blog suddenly turning into a stock market blog? There’s a reason, a pretty good one.
Google’s entry into the mobile advertising industry has put it in a much better position than before. Industry experts say that if a mobile user does a Google search on his mobile phone, just once a week, it could mean huge money for Google, adding up to its revenues. Just imagine, if the mobile user uses Google search just once a week, it could have that big an impact on its revenue. I’m sure as hell that the number of searches per user could be a LOT more than that. Imagine the kind of revenue Google can make and the kind of growth its stock can have. Now, you understand why I’m kicking myself for not having bought a Google share; right? What about you?
