But while more people buy phones with Google's software than Apple's, up until now there was no single company that sold more Android phones than Apple sold iPhones. Now Samsung has reported that it shipped 27.8 million smartphones last quarter. According to the BBC, that's 10...

Sometimes that giant, corporate-issued laptop won't satisfy your desires however much trendy its name sounds. But when an echo engulfs your hear bit-by-bit of something lighter, thinner, or perhaps a little bit more tempting. When you hear MacBook Air, it has always meant that sylphlike temptress calling your name, but always a thwart – fairly too slow – all showbiz and no action. That power and endurance to make it a staid candidate for your serious desires wasn't just there.
Never again with its new refresh, Elemental, brethren: the MacBook Earth, Water and Fire, certainly. What was once a manilla-wear curio turned into a reasonable machine, and never an airless looker? Tired vacationer, finally a laptop that will ease your load and, not forgetting, your pockets too is here…
The Earth is literally a green laptop sheltered in grass on an eco-friendly clay chassis. It's also powered by wind and solar-fuel. While more importantly it runs on a low-power phosphorescent screen. Secondly, the MacBook Water that will soak your cravings. Get your bottled iFluid and splash onto any leveled surface and 'Shwaa…' you'll see the shape of a keyboard and monitor. Once done, easily mop up and rinse the iFluid back into the bottle; but be careful lest you wipe the hard drive too.
Lastly, the super-fast MacBook Fire, it's very fast that chips literally explode into flames. Although, no Flash yet. The Fire should accompany asbestos gloves too. Of course, these are just concepts in the making, but who can't wait to see such innovation into action?

For those who are not yet satisfied, post-PC era is already here with us? We can fairly decisively conclude we've finally entered a post-netbook time. And this Q2 2011 marks the first time we've witnessed netbbooks numbers being eclipsed by tablets, according to ABI Research – where global tablet sales increased to 13.6 million units, than that of 7.3 million netbooks. In fact, Netbooks surged 13% from their first quarter sales of 8.4 million netbooks, and, more significantly, tablet sales really shot up: clocking 6.4 million units in the first quarter of this year.
Cost seemingly isn't a driving factor as earlier thought – according to the research firm; tablets still maintains an average price of $600 – almost double compared to their typically under-powered netbooks. Oh, by the way, did you know that of the 68% of tablets sold were of Cupertino's flavor?
