  • Nokia (NOK +2.7%) officially unveils the Lumia 928. It has a 4.5," 1280x768, OLED display (many high-end Android phones are now at 1080p), a 1.5GHz. dual-core Qualcomm (QCOM) Snapdragon processor, an 8.7MP camera with optical image stabilization and a xenon flash, and high-amp mics for audio recording. The specs are generally in-line with those mentioned in rumors. Verizon will start selling the 928 on May 16 for a subsidized $100 (with a rebate). Separately, Nokia announces the Lumia 620 (3.8" display) will be sold by AT&T's new Aio Wireless prepaid brand. [View news story]

    I think diablogun is probably close to being right and and that is keeping MSFT from attempting to acquire nokia... the other thing is Nokia has strong roots and I think it would upset that country in a big way if NOK sold out to a US company.

  • Real Goods Solar (RSOL +105.9%) skyrockets after SA contributor Andy Zelenak makes a bull case, citing the potential of the company's partnership with homebuilder Lennar (LEN) and its PowerOn solar modules. Zelenak notes the Lennar deal allows home buyers to install panels "with no money down at a guaranteed 20% lower-than-grid cost," and that PowerOn modules sell for just $2.33/watt, well below the national average of $4/watt. He also considers RSOL's valuation reasonable relative to those of high-flyers such as SolarCity[View news story]

    While I hesitate to agree that MSFT will again eat Apples lunch I think MSFT will definitely do much better the next 10 years then it has the last....

    So many people on the planet are now connected and there is plenty of room for both companies (as well as a few others) to succeed.

  • Major oil producers launch a joint program to beef up their Arctic oil spill response plan in a bid to convince the Arctic Council they are ready for large-scale development in the region. There are plenty of doubters, of course, and incidents such as BP 2010 Gulf of Mexico spill and Shell's recent problems north of Alaska with two drill ships don't help. [View news story]
