BlueStacks Powers AMD AppZone Player to Bring 500,000 Apps to over 100 million Windows Based PCs

On September 29, 2012, In Tips, Tricks and How-To, By T2Rman


Campbell, CA (PRWEB) September 27, 2012

BlueStacks today announced a collaboration with AMD to launch AMD AppZone, the largest collection of Android apps which can be run on PCs. Powered by BlueStacks, the AMD AppZone Player brings hundreds of thousands of Android apps to the next generation of Windows 8 based slates, laptops, tablets and AiO desktop PCs. AMD AppZone is also available for AMDs massive global installed base of Windows 7 based PCs. The collaboration with BlueStacks with optimizations for AMD GPU and APU technology enables a superior experience through AppZone on AMD powered PCs relative to other app stores like AppUp.

Starting today, consumers can directly access the AMD AppZone through their online website at AMD.com and browse through the featured apps that are free to download. AMD and BlueStacks are also working with leading PC manufacturers to preload AppZone and popular Android apps on new PCs. The apps are available in multiple languages including English, German, Korean, Chinese Simplified and Traditional, French, Italian, Spanish and Portuguese, across all categories like games, social, news, shopping, music, business and education.

AMD and BlueStacks are allowing the emerging Android market to become part of the broader PC ecosystem with the introduction of AMD AppZone, said Manju Hegde, corporate vice president, Heterogeneous Applications and Developer Solutions at AMD. With the new Windows 8 operating system just around the corner, were excited to enable exciting new solutions for our PC customers and end users to experience.

App stores and apps represent a multi-billion dollar opportunity. BlueStacks powered business models are ready to disrupt the PC industry by leveraging the unprecedented growth in the mobile eco-system, said Rosen Sharma, CEO of BlueStacks. By collaborating with AMD, we are able to bring 500,000 apps to Windows 8 ecosystem and the broader installed base of PCs. Thats significantly more apps than any existing PC app store including Intel AppUp or the Windows 8 App Store.

Renowned PC analyst Tim Bajarin added, This is the right move and a winning proposition for BlueStacks, AMD and for the entire PC ecosystem. Everyone is eagerly anticipating Windows 8, but consumers want a broad selection of familiar apps now. AMD and BlueStacks have addressed that in a big way.

New ZTE Smartphone Will Be Based on Google OS

On February 13, 2012, In Tips, Tricks and How-To, By T2Rman

Article by Jeff Gasner

ZTE Corp. plans to launch a new smartphone based on Google Inc.’s mobile operating system sometime early in 2010. But as this segment of the mobile phone industry keeps growing and growing, who will fix these contraptions when they break?

Hong Kong’s ZTE is getting into the act. Everybody’s making smartphones these days. The new ZTE phone, as of yet remaining nameless, might as well be called the Bingo. ZTE is hoping that whatever the thing is called, it might add an incredible 50 million handsets to its overall shipping inventory of 60 million handsets and mobile broadband data cards if its newest Google-based unit saturates the mobile phone segment with worldwide distribution. Distributors are already lining up, with the Bingo’s potential suitors including such industry heavyweights as Vodaphone Group PLC, Verizon Wireless, France Telecom SA’s Orange, and T-Mobile vowing to supply ZTE’s smartphones to every corner of the known Earth, including wherever possible in the midst of the great oceans. Smartphones are flexible, ZTE’s spokespersons say, allowing consumers to send e-mails and conduct a myriad of multimedia applications — once the exclusive domain of personal computers. ZTE used to be content to be a vendor of low-cost telecom equipment, and that stuff seldom made it out of Asia, but in those not-so-long ago days, smartphones weren’t so smart – or so commonplace. One can’t really blame ZTE. The company just wants to pad its gross margin with a slice of the pie.

But it’s becoming like that ancient Star Trek episode featuring a guy named Mudd. If the show was still going, this one might be called “The Trouble with Smartphones.” Although they don’t multiply in the same manner as rabbits, hamsters, or tribbles, they might as well.

Still, consumers are coming to depend upon these contraptions a little more each year. There’s a contest for units capable of accessing the most applications, often referred to these days as “apps,” and they are already beginning to break in a multitude of ways as consumers are becoming increasingly careless… and some of the latest smartphone warranties aren’t worth the paper they’re printed on. What’s a consumer to do?

The answer is right there, as plain to see as… the simplest app. Independent repair shops for smartphones and their cousins are popping up like oases in the tech-laden deserts. They’ll fix ‘em for you.
