CE-Oh no he didn’t!: Tim Cook savoring the iPad’s Windows ‘cannibalization’
Tim Cook had plenty of reason to celebrate during today’s Apple earnings call — and really, who can blame the guy if a bit of that celebration spilled over into some old school executive gloating? While talking up the company’s impressive iPad numbers — and the inevitable PC-eclipsing nature of the space, Cook let this bomb drop, There is cannibalization of the Mac by the iPad, but we think there’s more cannibalization of Windows PCs by the iPad – we love that trend

Apple’s Q1 hardware sales: 37 million iPhones, 15.43 million iPads, 5.2 million Macs, 15.4 million iPods
We touched on the numbers in our report on Apple’s Q1 earnings, but the company’s throwing out a lot of “record” figures so we thought we’d take a moment to focus on just how its hardware sales stack up. The standout number is, of course, the 37.04 million iPhones sold during the quarter, which is up 128 percent from the same quarter a year ago (and up from 17 million in the previous quarter, a jump of 117 percent). That notably puts Apple back ahead of Samsung, which sold a total of 35 million total smartphones in its most recent quarter .

Skype for Mac Beta update adds revamped call UI, incoming video calls
Skype’s Mac Beta software was anointed with another update this morning, adding an “improved” user interface and new voice call support. With version 5.5, users will be able to accept incoming calls with or without video, while taking advantage of the program’s streamlined layout, which has apparently made it easier for them to mute, transmit videos, share screens and add others on to their calls. Skype is currently asking for feedback on the new build, so if you wanna give it a spin for yourself, check out the source link below.
