Apple's new iPhone four S -- battery problems we -- And shake ups at H -- -- -- -- -- also making news.

Business boy genius report the president and added retriever the boy -- Jonathan -- is here at trying to make sense out of all of us.

Which also welcomed the program thank you you've got a website BGR dot com boy genius report dot com back to you.

And you know all about this apple for.

S battery problem Telus.

A lot of people have complained about for us battery life.

It's probably a software thing so there will be a software update to fix that person is serious.

There's a -- issue that can happen and -- that -- it's going to battery life but it's not as saucers iphones don't normally get negative publicity.

Would you categorize this as some negative publicity.

I would say it's negative let's say it's a small subset of users that have a little bit of an issue of focus not just a faster fonts is gonna be a little bit of -- -- with battery life anyway so you kind of dismissing some this is not a big deal it's not their big -- -- anything that happened last year with the original iPhone antenna -- -- coming.

Well let's look at the couple about South Korea -- and I just say one thing which is.

My Blackberry I'm not defending apple here but my black my new BlackBerry Curve.

It has a very short battery life as well I think all of these new Smartphones or are overloaded with -- is -- true.

There's a lot of things that can happen on your phone tickets are about a -- -- -- they've been very very solid.

But -- at this point.

Consumers -- used to -- -- their phone and once or twice -- three -- -- -- -- by the way the market agrees with you that this is not a major problem for -- the stock is down -- of forty cents -- -- -- 55 cents a 404 dollars a -- well -- -- down 39 cents a boy -- you -- -- yet again now Hewlett-Packard.

Okay Leo apotheker says no more -- computers are getting out -- that -- business.

In comes Meg Whitman says our -- a second it would gonna stay in that business.

You'll take is.

I mean is that for the right move when I think it was the right move get back into one or not they never out of state but standard and it's it's the right -- mean you have company that's gonna split up and compete with your enterprise solutions that some make much sense.

So you think it will stay as one of the world's.

From the technology company as well -- -- their pockets are doing really well in terms of the computer industry and its heart that to be apple -- to be.

Doubt they're number one but I think it only adds about 16% to their top line in terms of profits so it wasn't a bad decision is that when you think at HP.

You think of computers you think of printers nobody really in the consumer side thinks -- the enterprise I think that's an issue they have as weighing those businesses.

I just see a lot of big name technology companies that are not going anyway.

-- -- -- well run companies to make a lot of money out of the Intel's of this world to Cisco's of this world the Microsoft's of this world and Hewlett-Packard.

That's the -- I'm just -- stock plus percent it just stays in this very very narrow band make a lot of money go nowhere.

Apple is the exception and the result is an exception -- gone the other way bet on straight off.

What's going on.

-- -- about focusing on what your company is about I don't even think at this point HP knows what HP is.

-- -- a company like apple or Amazon that are very very focused in what they do and especially what they don't do and that they think it's a big difference in terms of running those companies.

Apple's -- very specific on the products they do as Amazon what's the best technology company in the world.

Apple yet.

Absolutely totally -- -- absolutely be dismissed this battery problem is of -- is a 55 -- problem yeah and not even but it's it's it's not an issue at all but I think.

Pound for pound they're the best technology company and -- arsenals -- What can you tell us about the the apple five the I -- -- to know what was the practice what you find GO what is it is a fine idea I suppose -- -- -- five.

I thought thank you unhelpful happily when it.

It's supposed to be very very -- -- have a larger screen.

Better camera and it will be forgy as well to take advantage of all the networks and -- in the US and abroad so it's probably looking like in June 2 quarters three released next -- One of the teenage visit this to my house the other day showed me some -- this on the web.

Well they simulated the new on iPhone 5.

And up came a virtual screen.

In parliament and -- -- -- I have I think the hologram yes and this is always there's a keyboard you can -- wanna ask you so you can look at our federal and that in front of you -- and the keyboard is in lights it's not really -- and it looks like -- that but he -- -- onto its and then you got this virtual -- -- -- thirteen million views all of this futuristic thing now that's just a representation of the -- some guy thinks it might look.

And we're not even talking about the apple TV which is a -- another thing which may -- some -- Netflix and all the other things that are to their deals with the or is it possible to get a hologram in two five on iPhone 5 to make you look.

It's not going to be an act -- five but there actually are things you can buy.

In terms of Bluetooth keyboard that will allow you to type on your desk and using their projected yet there.

But not the hologram out how actual salary not quite yet you buy that if you saw -- and that's a real ground -- -- boy genius report dot com I think -- -- -- -- negative W a very good and we appreciate being negative effects are much.
