A few days ago I commented about the strange strategy to stop offering the iPhone 4 in India one year after it is reintroduced to be strong in the Indian market. Although we speculated stock reasons, has finally been simpler: Apple will introduce the iPhone 5C 8GB in India.

The new 8GB model was introduced a few weeks ago in all markets, being more economical to the top models intended for those users who do not want to spend much money on a device option. Still, prices are so tight that most users still prefer to buy the top models.

In India the movement is similar to that made ​​in Europe, although the iPhone 5C (8GB) only differ in price about $ 30 of iPhone 5C (16GB).

Will be the key? Personally I do not think so, but just something different in the Indian market. I am not an expert.

At the launch of iOS and iCloud, its goal was to merge this experience in Mac OSX, to make a more efficient synchronization between devices. After three years of its introduction, Apple continues to improve its functionality. The company is working on a couple new app, as well as improving existing providing app developers to create apps compatible with working iCloud-iWork.

Apple is developing versions of Preview and TextEdit for Mac OSX system, which have been optimized for the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. These new features would aim to eliminate the need to use PDF as previewing documents, creating their own Standard. 

In short, developers would be encouraged to build the app with this structure in order to synchronize all the functionality without the need for third-party apps. Imbue TextEdit and Preview app in iWork to work together to both iOS and Mac OSX.
