| Stiletto sales go sky high as Paltrow kick-starts craze for towering heels | | 2008-05-11 09:17:00 | | I like it :)Gwyneth Paltrow was rarely seen out of a pair of towering heels in an effort to secure maximum publicity for her new movie Iron ManBy Jonathan BrownThursday, 8 May 2008 The actress Gwyneth Paltrow has made a career combining extraordinary glamour with equal measures of clean-living, down-to-earth charm. She is perhaps as well known for her appearances in films such as The Talented Mr Ripley and The Royal Tenenbaums as she is for her love of macrobiotic food, penchant for bizarre names (she and her husband, Coldplay's Chris Martin, called their daughter Apple) and her determined refusal to play the Hollywood superstar.However, a recent spate of public appearances has shown the star in a new and distinctly edgier light as she has stepped out in front of the world's paparazzi sporting some of the highest heels known to mankind. Her endorsement of six, seven, and even eight-inch elevations crafted by the design house Pacini has not only generated acres of coverage for her new f | | By: Nerdy Eddy | | |

| The console war is getting heated: console sales vs attach rate | | 2008-05-06 22:14:00 | | Console war Inserito originariamente da Abriael Just today David Reeves of Sony Computer Entertainment Europe announced that the PS3 finally surpassed the Xbox 360 as of total sales in europe (despite the fact that the 360 had 16 months of headstart). Even if it isn't unexpected (everyone and his mother was seeing this coming), it shows that the console war, at least the one between high resolution consoles (the Wii is in a world of it's own, with a totally different target), is getting really heated. At the moment the PS3 seems to have a stronger momentum, and I definately think it's destine to overtake the rival by a quite consistant margin by the end of this generation. Normally Microsoft executives (and fanboys) try to PR spin this possibility with the quite fishy concept of "attach rate", the average number of games bought by the average owner of each console. Notoriously the xbox 360 has an attach rate of 7 (we know it very well, since they wave it around like a flag ever | | By: Classy Gamer | | |

| Cisco Profit Falls 5.4%, Sales Top Analysts Estimates | | 2008-05-06 17:03:02 | | May 6 - Cisco Systems Inc., the world's largest maker of networking equipment, said third-quarter profit fell 5.4 percent on acquisition expenses. Sales beat analysts' estimates, sending the shares higher in extended trading. Net income declined to $1.77 billion, or 29 cents a share, from $1.87 billion, or 30 cents, a year earlier, Cisco said today in a statement. Revenue rose 10 percent to $9.79 billion in the period ended April 26, beating the average estimate of $9.75 billion in a Bloomberg survey. The report may alleviate concern that business continued to deteriorate after Chief Executive Officer John Chambers predicted in February that a sales slump would last as long as five quarters. Cisco won orders from carriers such as Elisa Oyj, Finland's second-largest phone company. Fourth-quarter sales will rise 9 percent to 10 percent, Chambers said. ``Things have at least stabilized for Cisco,'' Erik Suppiger, an analyst at Signal Hill Capital G | | By: Clickbank Business Guide | | |

| Toyota halts 2008 Highlander sales as part of recall | | 2008-05-04 16:14:00 | | Slightly more than 90,000 Toyota Highlanders are being recalled for a seatbelt problem in the third row. The recalled crossovers are all 2008 models built between May of 2007 and March of this year. The stock belts could prevent secure mounting of a rear-facing child seat in the third row, and dealers will install a redesigned part on affected Highlanders. The problem with the third row belts hasn't spawned any complaints or injuries, and owners will be notified starting in June. Still, Toyota has put the brakes on Highlander sales until current stock is retrofitted and assembly lines are resupplied with the new part.[Source: AP via WCVB] | | By: Car News | | |

| Amazon Sues Over State Law on Collection of Sales Tax | | 2008-05-02 13:25:28 | | Amazon.com has filed a lawsuit challenging New York State’s new law forcing online retailers to collect sales tax on shipments to state residents.On Friday, Amazon filed a complaint in State Supreme Court in Manhattan objecting to the law, which was approved as part of the $122 billion state budget that Gov. David A. Paterson signed last week. The law is expected to raise about $50 million.The issue is not whether people should pay tax when they buy goods from out-of-state sellers like Amazon. For decades, the state has required them to pay sales or use tax. The question is whether the vendors must collect that tax on behalf of the state. Generally, only those companies that have a physical presence — like an office or store — in the state where the purchase is made are required to collect the tax. The new law is based on a novel definition of what constitutes a presence in the state: It includes any Web site based in the state that earns a referral fee for sending customers to a | | By: Clickbank Business Guide | | |

| GTA IV Shatters Sales Records! | | 2008-05-01 20:15:00 | | It has only been one day since the release of Gran Theft Auto IV, but the numbers have the look of a game that has been around for a month. With roughly over 2.5 million units sold in States, and over 1.4 million units in Europe, the total number is somewhere near 4.2 million units which generates at least $170M just on US soil...add almost that onto it with European and Asian sales and the number look staggering both unit and revenue-wise. If you were wondering, in US & surprisingly in UK, Xbox 360 outsold its Sony counterpart at a 3:2 rate, but Europe in general we see a mirror image of US by PS3 outselling 3:2 ratio. Considering how many PlayStations are out there, GTA sold more units per console on Sony.Source: Numerous reliable websites.

| April Sales Show Shift to Smaller Cars | | 2008-05-01 15:42:10 | | DETROIT — Automakers reported higher sales of small cars as oil and gasoline prices climbed to record highs in April, but said Thursday that overall vehicle sales in the United States plummeted during the month. Sales decreased 23 percent from April 2007 at General Motors and 19 percent at the Ford Motor Company. Toyota’s sales fell 4.5 percent, and Nissan’s declined 1.6 percent. The numbers are adjusted to account for two more selling days in April this year.Honda and Chrysler planned to release their sales later Thursday.Much of the misery occurred in the lineups of pickup trucks and sport utility vehicles, which consumers have been shunning in search of smaller, more fuel-efficient offerings. That is bad news for the automakers, particularly the Detroit Three, which build many more trucks than cars, because bigger vehicles have much higher profit margins.Light truck sales fell a staggering 32 percent at G.M., 25 percent at Ford, 19 percent at Nissan and 16 percent at To | | By: Clickbank Business Guide | | |

| Suburban Chicago Retailers (Illegally?) Pay Sales Tax for Customers in Stimulus Check Sale | | 2008-04-28 23:00:00 | | In suburban Chicago, some enterprising retailers are encouraging taxpayers to spend their stimulus payment checks in their shops: About 75 merchants in Geneva's downtown area along and off State Street are looking for you to visit them today and Sunday.If you do, they'll pick up the sales tax on your purchases.[...]"Everybody is pretty geared up for it," said Carolyn Dellutri, downtown development coordinator for the city.The unofficial theme, she said, is "You paid your income taxes on Tuesday, we'll pay your sales taxes this weekend."Participating stores are flying a Tax-Free Zone banner. Cutting your prices by 7% may not be much, but it's a nice gesture that probably worked rather well. (Especially since Chicago with its punitive 10.25% sales tax rate is just across town.)

| Sony hires 13 PS2 game developers to increase sales in India | | 2008-04-27 19:42:23 | | To give some perspective on the relative age of Sony's second console, think about this: if the PlayStation 2 were a human being, it would be a third-grader right about now, and would probably know more about long division than we do.While most eight-year-old consoles generally go the way of the Jaguar, Sony seems dedicated to the continued growth of their popular (though fairly aged) home console -- for example, in an attempt to extend their already impressive multinational reach, Sony recently hired 13 Indian game developers to create domestically-themed games and improve sales in India and the Middle East.Though nearly 3.3 million Indians already own PS2s, Sony is confident that creating games based on "Bollywood, mythology and culture" and featuring motion-sensing gameplay using the fairly neglected Eye Toy peripheral will further increase their dominance in the Indian market.

Apple rose $6.05 a share or 3.7%, to close at $168.94 after the company reported earnings of $1.05 billion, or $1.16 a share, on $7.51 billion in revenue for the quarter ended March 31. During the same period a year ago, Apple earned $770 million, or 87 cents a share, on sales of $5.26 billion. The results topped Apple's forecast for a profit of 94 cents a share and $6.8 billion in revenue. Analysts surveyed by FactSet Research had estimated Apple would earn $1.05 a share on sales of $7 billion.
