Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella and Sales force CEO Marc Benioff might have had some amazing moments earlier this year but MS’s Business solutions unit that offers Dynamics CRM offline and online is now challenging Salesforce’s solution.

Yesterday Microsoft started offering Dynamics CRM online, Office 365 and Power BI for just 65 dollars per user per month. This is exact same price taht Salesforce.com is offering to its customers.

Such tight integration between Salesforce CRM and cloud based office 365 productivity applications are the key components of the mutual understanding between MS and SF’s CEOs.

SF is also set to debut Salesforce1 application for windows and Windows phone platforms this fall. MS’s CRM application is tightly integrated with their office online and Power BI.

Since MS is now offering both together at low price, it will make lives of salesforce folks tougher than ever.

Boyue T61 E-ink Android tablet is a rebranded version of Illumina ereader which is apparently sold by Dutch retailer. It was launched last fall with pretty decent specifications.

The Boyue T61 E-Ink specifications include  6″ Pearl HD E-ink screen with front light, touchscreen, Android 4.2, 1 GHz dual core processor with 512MB RAM, 4GB internal storage, a micro SD card slot, and Wi-Fi.

All those features make it an excellent E-Ink tablet. There is no mention of Play Store on it so it is safe to assume that it would not come with any.

Supported reading formats include Epub, PDF, FB2, and Mobi. Of course since it runs Android you can install your favorite APK on it and use any ereading app you want.

However it ships with several applications pre installed including file manager, drop box, web browser and email client. Selling price is 119 euros including shipping. Boyue T61 E-ink tablet does not come with a retail box but was packed in a plain styro-foam box. This is chiefly done to keep the price down.
