Every one follows success, holds true specially when its Apple who has achieved it with its innovation and it did the same with the latest iPhone. Presently Acer has some plans as it invites reporters to attend the World Mobile Congress. The invitation features a woman clapping and Acer promising consumers the rhythm of life. With what? Acer’s very own smartphone. So what platform will it run on? It isn’t the part of the Open Handset Alliance, so chances are bleak it goes for Android.

Yahoo is desperately trying to justify its move of automating account optimization for advertisers. According to Yahoo, the decision has seen impressive results since they optimized close to 2% of the existing accounts and advertisers are more than satisfied with the decision. There has been some cry about this but to no avail as Yahoo and more likely it would have no effect in the future unless Yahoo finds it troublesome itself.

Let’s just hope MySpace realizes this and plans a fruitful strategy.

SAP is ready to downsize its workforce even more, perhaps to celebrate a pretty successful last quarter. The last quarter reported a 13% rise in net income, a pretty high percentage given that many firms nose dived by an even larger margin. I guess it’s not taking any chances during the current year and will continue keeping its expenses tighter. Though we aren’t sure about the number of exits.
