"The industry’s shift to the 3rd Platform will accelerate in 2012, forcing the industry’s leaders to make bold investments and fateful decisions. Companies like Microsoft, HP, SAP, RIM, and others – including Apple – will face ‘crossroads moments’ in 2012. By the end of the year, we should have a good idea which vendors will – and won’t – be among the industry’s leaders at the end of the decade."

Quote by Frank Gens, senior vice president and chief analyst at IDC.  Quote found in an IDC Press Release: IDC Predicts 2012 Will Be the Year of Mobile and Cloud Platform Wars as IT Vendors Vie for Leadership While the Industry Redefines Itself
