• Blackberry 10 device without a physical keyboard about to be released.  (RIM is the company that makes Blackberries.)

[Comment: Should we say RIP to RIM?  Physical keyboards are the main reason (and often the sole reason) why Blackberry users stay loyal.  Getting rid of your keyboard, RIM, is like closing the lid on your own coffin.  You have effectively delivered your last remaining customers to your competitors.] 

• Morsi (of the Islamist Brotherhood) wins Egyptian election

[Comment and background:  This is a relief.  The other candidate was of the previous regime and there were signs that the military in control was going to rig the election to get the other candidate to win.  It was clear that Morsi was the more popular candidate among the people.  If they had rigged the election, it would’ve been obvious and civil war (like that in Syria) would have been probable.  So, it is a relief to that region and the world that they didn’t rig that election and Morsi won.]
