Smartphones Gain Ground in India

NEW DELHI — As BlackBerry introduces the first wholesale smart phones from its make-or-break BB10 line in India, one of its most loyal markets, the company faces new competition from a formidable rival that has long had a minimal presence in the country.
More than four years after it started selling iPhones in India, Apple is aggressively pushing the devices with installment payment plans that make it more affordable, a new distribution model and a marketing blitz.
“Now your dream phone” at 5,056 rupees, or $94, read a recent full front-page ad for the iPhone 5 in the Times of India, referring to the initial payment on a phone priced at about 45,500 rupees, or almost two months’ wages for an entry-level software engineer.
The newfound interest in India suggests a subtle strategy shift for Apple, which has moved tentatively in emerging markets and has allowed rivals like BlackBerry and Samsung Electronics to dominate with more affordable smartphones. With the exception of China, all Apple stores are in advanced economies.
Apple expanded its Indian sales effort in the second half of 2012 by adding two distributors. Previously it had sold iPhones only through a few carriers and stores it calls premium resellers.
The result: Shipments of iPhones to India between October and December nearly tripled to 250,000 units, from 90,000 in the previous quarter, according to an estimate by Jessica Kwee, a Singapore-based analyst at the consulting firm Canalys.
At the MobileStore, an Indian chain owned by the Essar conglomerate, which says it sells 15 percent of the iPhones purchased in the country, iPhone sales tripled between December and January, thanks to a monthly payment program introduced last month.
“Most people in India can’t afford a dollar-priced phone when the salaries in India are rupee salaries,” said Himanshu Chakrawarti, the MobileStore’s chief executive. “But the desire is the same.”
Apple, its distributors, its retailers and banks share the advertising and interest costs of the marketing push, according to Mr. Chakrawarti. Carriers like Bharti Airtel, which also sell the iPhone 5, run separate ads.
India is the world’s second-largest cheap wholesale smartphones market by number of users, but most Indians cannot afford fancy handsets. Smartphones account for just a tenth of total phone sales. In India, 95 percent of cellphone users have prepaid accounts without fixed contracts. Unlike those in the United States, Indian carriers do not subsidize handsets.
Within the smartphone segment, Apple’s Indian market share last quarter was just 5 percent, according to Canalys, meaning its overall penetration is tiny.
Still, the industry research company IDC expects the Indian smartphone market to grow more than five times, to 108 million units in 2016, from about 19 million last year, which presents a big opportunity.
Samsung Electronics dominates Indian smartphone sales with a 40 percent share, thanks to its wide portfolio of Android devices, priced as low as 5,900 rupees. The market has also been flooded with lower-cost Android phones from local brands like Lava and Micromax.
Most smartphones sold in India are much cheaper than the iPhone, said Anshul Gupta, a Gartner analyst: “Where the masses are — there, Apple still has a gap.”
Apple helped create the smartphone industry with the iPhone in 2007, but last year it lost its lead globally to Samsung, whose free Android software is especially attractive in Asia. Many in Silicon Valley and on Wall Street believe the surest way to penetrate lower-income Asian markets would be with a lower-cost iPhone, as has been widely reported but never confirmed. The risk is that a lower-cost iPhone would reduce demand for the premium version and eat into Apple’s margins.
The new monthly payment plan in India goes a long way toward expanding the potential market, Mr. Chakrawarti said.
“The Apple campaign is not meant for, really, the regular top-end customer; it is meant to upgrade the 10,000-12,000 handset guy to 45,000 rupees,” he said.
Apple’s main focus for expansion in Asia has been Greater China, including Hong Kong, mainland China and Taiwan, where revenue grew 60 percent last quarter to $7.3 billion.
Asked last year why Apple had not been as successful in India, Timothy D. Cook, the company’s chief executive, said that its business in India was growing but that the company remained more focused on other markets.
“I love India, but I believe that Apple has some higher potential in the intermediate term in some other countries,” Mr. Cook said. “The multilayer distribution there really adds to the cost of getting products to market.”
Apple, which has partly addressed that situation by adding distributors, did not respond to an e-mail seeking comment.
Ingram Micro, one of its new distributors, also declined to comment. Executives at Redington, the other distributor, could not immediately be reached.
BlackBerry, which has seen its global market share shrivel to 3.4 percent from 20 percent over the past three years, is making what is seen as a last-ditch effort to save itself with the BB10 series.         
The high-end BlackBerry Z10, introduced in India on Monday, is expected to be priced not far from the 45,500-rupee price tag for an iPhone 5 with 16 gigabytes of memory. The Samsung Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note 2, the Nokia Lumia 920 and two HTC models are the main iPhone rivals.
Until last year, BlackBerry had a market share of more than 10 percent in India, thanks to a push into the consumer segment with lower-priced discount smartphones. Last quarter, its share fell to about 5 percent, according to Canalys, just ahead of Apple.

Ailing Florida hotel reopens as clothing

"We were born naked. None of us came here with clothes on to begin with. And it's so peaceful and relaxing," explained Joe Wagner of Orlando, Fla., sipping a beverage with his wife, Cindy, and three fellow nudists at a poolside table.
The Wagners first sampled the clothing-free lifestyle about a dozen years ago at Cypress Cove Nudist Resort Spa in Kissimmee, Fla. Now, the couple lists Cocoa Beach's sole naturist establishment as a favorite destination.
PHOTOS: Fawlty Towers nude resort"Look around," Cindy Wagner said, waving her arm at bare-skinned sunbathers around the pool. "You can be 100 pounds. You can be 500 pounds. No one cares."
After nearly going under as a struggling motel, Fawlty Towers reopened May 1 as a re-branded, wholesale leggings clothing-optional resort. Now, manager David Broad says weekend business is brisk, and the no-clothes strategy has saved the 32-room facility from fiscal oblivion. It has also made it one of a growing number of resorts establishing nudist-friendly facilities as a way to weather the lingering economic downturn.

The American Association for Nude Recreation estimates that nude recreation has grown into a $440 million annual industry.
The changes are not without controversy. Two days after the grand re-opening of the Fawlty Towers, the Cocoa Beach City Commission ordered research on whether the facility ran afoul of hotel, health, alcohol or public-nudity regulations.
Debra Key, a Cocoa Beach resident who is involved in Girl Scouts, complained to commissioners that Fawlty Towers could corrupt children's minds and attract prostitution.
"It doesn't stay behind closed doors. The type of perversion that comes to these places - they bring the drugs along with it, the sexual promiscuity," Key told commissioners.
But City Attorney Skip Fowler later determined that Fawlty Towers is operating in legal fashion.
"My hat's off to them. They're trying something different," said Bob Morton, executive director of the Naturist Action Committee of Oshkosh, Wisc. This non-profit group fights for nudists' rights in communities across the USA.
"It may or may not work for them, but they'll make some adjustments and say, 'That's the best idea we've ever had' - or, 'That really stinks,'" Morton said. "You have to ask the Cocoa Beach city commissioners: Would they be happier to have the place shuttered with a 'For Sale' sign on the window?".
In a similar business-model switch, the shuttered Mira Vista Resort in Tucson, Ariz., reopened as a nudist facility in May 2006. The historic property formerly operated as a guest ranch, a shelter for abused women funded by Suzanne Somers, and a gay health spa before closing down in December 2005, said Suzanne Schell, co-owner.
"Had we just bought this place as a traditional hotel, we would not have lasted. It's lasted because we've got this nudist niche," said Schell, who also co-owns Laguna Del Sol Nudist Resort near Sacramento, Calif.
"You've got a clientele of people around the country looking for nudist places to go to. The resort, which features 13 geothermal mineral pools, reopened in February after being closed since 2007.
Campground construction may wrap up by early fall, said Damon Shirk, co-owner.
Not all naturist resorts are prospering amid poor economic conditions. We're in a small town. Most people did not care a lot about naturists," Troeger said.
Troeger now plans to add more child-friendly activities and equipment at the 100-acre wooded site, which offers swimming, boating and fishing.
Broad hopes Fawlty Towers can capitalize on the men suits wholesale

clothing-optional cruise industry. In November, Royal Caribbean's Freedom of the Seas will offer a nudist cruise from nearby Port Canaveral that may attract nearly 4,000 passengers.

She said it was too daunting to try and figure out which prints looked good on her. Knowing how to mix and match prints with other items in her closet was way too complicated.
Quick Tips on How to Wear Prints
Wear prints that are the right size print for your figure.

When you want to go bold and wear head to toe print, remember that the prints need to have at least one color in common to pull them together. This is a little more difficult but could be really fun and trendy.
Tribal prints look very chic with metallic accessories. Great big gold earring looks fabulous with this print.
You can also keep the tribal look organic by pairing tribal prints with woven and crochets accessories.

You can locate just about anything you need to buy online even shoes. You can't beat the internet for the broadest selection and the most incredible pricing. It simply takes a bit of common sense and forward thinking to ensure you are getting high quality product that will fit you well. The purpose of this article is to provide you with some useful tips to keep in mind when you go shoe shopping online.
If you are like most you want to save money which is why you seek the internet for deals you can't get elsewhere that will save you money. This means that when you find a pair you like, you should do some browsing to make sure the same product isn't available elsewhere at a better price. Another possibility is that a certain site may be offering a promo or coupon, so if you're on the email lists of any retailers pay attention to special discounts you may be able to use. Many of these are not openly visible on the website but you may be offered them at checkout or you can search the web for coupon codes too. While many people shop on Amazon and other large online retailers for many products, others still don't realize how vast the selection is on these sites. Amazon, for example, has an entire category for footwear, and you can also choose among many subcategories, such as men's or women's cheap shoes for women online, athletic footwear, outdoor, etc. Pay attention to the special deals on shipping or discount offers if you spend over a specified dollar amount. You won't want to buy things you weren't intending to purchase anyway but if you have several items to buy anyway you can really save by getting them all on the same website.
Many people do not think that auction sites are good places to purchase their shoes. This is because when they see a site such as Ebay, they only see people getting things from their basements and garages. The idea of purchasing someone else's dirty used shoes does not sound interesting at all. However, the auction sites of today also have on stock a few brand new products that might be cheaper than you see other places. Also, with so many items being offered with the "buy now" option, they aren't even technically auctions, as there's no bidding involved. So if you're looking for a great pair of shoes at a discount price, it's worth checking out auction sites.
All in all, buying baby shoe wholesale online can be very simple, especially when you consider that you can also save a few dollars. Before you shop, have a plan and know what type of shoes you're searching for, otherwise you could become distracted by the huge range available.
