Meanwhile this week … HP (the printer manufacturers who split from their enterprise business 10 months ago) is consolidating their share of the printing market with 6,500 patents being acquired from Samsung for a little over $1b to consolidate market share at around 40%.

Oh and Apple launched the iPhone 7 which translates to a part of the anatomy in Cantonese (repeating a similar ‘mistake’ made recently by Samsung. Do your research people… all press is good press apparently.
