SINGAPORE, KOMPAS.com – Apple’s iPhone will likely dominate the high-end smartphone market in the next five years but faces strong competition from handsets using Google’s Android platform, a research firm said Tuesday.

By 2015, total mobile application downloads in the Asia-Pacific are forecast to reach 5.30 billion, of which 597.15 million, or about 11 percent, will be for the iPhone, technology industry consultancy Ovum said.

Downloads of iPhone applications are estimated at 62.16 million dollars in 2010, Ovum said in an analysis released four days before the launch of the new-generation iPhone 4 in another 17 countries and cities worldwide on Friday. The iPhone 4 is expected “to face much stiffer competition than its predecessors”, Ovum principal analyst Adam Leach said in a statement.

“The rise of Google Android over the last two years has been phenomenal and is allowing manufacturers to create appealing alternatives to the iPhone, critically at cheaper prices,” Leach said.

Handsets using the Android operating platform are more than just clones of the iconic iPhone, he said.

“The risk to Apple is that these devices offer greater freedom with available content and may prove more appealing, if it offers the right user and developer experience, than a device with Apple-approved content only,” said Leach.

“This may ultimately be what puts the brakes on unlimited iPhone growth.” From July 30, customers can purchase the iPhone 4 in Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, Hong Kong, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, New Zealand, Singapore, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland. It will be available for purchase through Apple’s online store.

WASHINGTON,  U.S. President Barack Obama, Saturday (07/03/2010), poured funds amounting to nearly two billion dollars to the two energy company committed to build solar power plants in the U.S.. This commitment is expected to create thousands of employment opportunities in the country.

“We will continue to strive for improvement,” Obama said when giving a speech on the radio weekly. “We will continue to fight aggressively to ensure the future of work and the industry is rooted here in America,” Obama said.

Abengoa Solar, one of the company, agreed to build the largest solar power plant in Arizona, which will create 1600 jobs in construction. When completed later, this plant is able to create clean energy for 70 000 homes.

Meanwhile, other companies, abound Solar Manufacturing, agreed to build two power plants, each in Colorado and Indiana. Both these plants can absorb the estimated 2000 workers, and 1,500 permanent jobs. Because, this plant will produce millions of solar panels each year, said White House officials.

“This is what some of the things we’re doing,” Obama said. But Obama realizes that this step has not been able to absorb all the existing workforce. Former Illinois senator said he would continue to fight for it.

The announcement was made following a report about U.S. unemployment rate reached 9.5 percent due to the impact of economic recession which was sweeping the country. Obama says America still needs time to get out of economic recession.
