GUEST COMMENTS Mark Zukerberg-- "WhatsApp is a great company and it's a great

fit for us.Already

almost half a billion people love using WhatsApp for messaging.It's

the most engaging app that we've ever seen that exists on mobile by far”.

WhatsApp founder and CEO Jan Koum has promised “its mission won’t

change and that it will remain independently run following its $19bn

acquisition by Facebook.”

JD Howard, Lenovo’s vice president says Motorola will play a huge role in the

run phase of its “crawl, walk, run strategy,” wherein it will re-infiltrate

markets that Samsung and Apple currently dominate.

Cisco CEO, John Chambers believes the Internet of everything, also known as the Internet

of things, will create $19 trillion in economic benefit and value over the next decade.
