The Apple computer company has been able to successfully thwart the downturn of 2008 and 2009, in spite of decline in computer sales. That was only due to the spurt in sales of the internet phone i.e, iPhone which was good enough to push out the number one mobile instrument maker of the world, Nokia, out of the US market.
Now Google wants to fight it out in the internet phone market with the scheduled launch of it’s own iphone in order to make it big in that segment. That could be a real big fight because Google is known to make success out of every major effort in the last decade.
