More than three weeks after word first broke that Dell Inc. DELL+0.75% was in talks to go private, the deal is finally, really, actually here.
Here are the details that we haven’t all learned, or remained in
unsettled, from weeks of stories about the biggest leveraged buyout
since 2007. Price – $13.65 a share for a deal value $24.4
billion. A 25% premium over where the shares traded the day before word
first broke. Shares were halted at the opening bell after closing at
$13.27 on Monday. Go-shop period – The board, which formed a special
committee and reviewed other strategic alternatives, will have a 45-day
go-shop period where it can solicit and receive other bids. Termination fees – The buyout group would get a
termination fee of only $180 million if Dell strikes a deal with
competing bidder during the go-shop period. That would be less than 1%
of the deal’s value, a slim fee. For a bid outside of the go-shop fee,
the buyout group would get a $450 million fee. Dell board quote, from Alex Mandl, head of special committee –“The
Special Committee and its advisers conducted a disciplined and
independent process intended to ensure the best outcome for
shareholders. Importantly, the go-shop process provides a real
opportunity to determine if there are alternatives superior to the
present offer from Mr. Dell and Silver Lake.” Michael Dell’s quote – ”Dell has made solid progress
executing this strategy over the past four years, but we recognize that
it will still take more time, investment and patience, and I believe
our efforts will be better supported by partnering with Silver Lake in
our shared vision. I am committed to this journey and I have put a
substantial amount of my own capital at risk together with Silver Lake, a
world-class investor with an outstanding reputation. We are committed
to delivering an unmatched customer experience and excited to pursue the
path ahead.” Silver Lake quote: “Michael Dell is a true visionary
and one of the preeminent leaders of the global technology industry,”
said Egon Durban, a Silver Lake Managing Partner. “Silver Lake is
looking forward to partnering with him, the talented management team at
Dell and the investor group to innovate, invest in long-term growth
initiatives and accelerate the company’s transformation strategy to
become an integrated and diversified global IT solutions provider.” Advisers: Dell special committee: J.P. Morgan and Evercore
Partners are acting as financial advisers and Debevoise & Plimpton
LLP is acting as legal adviser to the special committee of Dell’s Board
of Directors. Dell: Goldman, Sachs & Co. is acting as financial adviser and Hogan Lovells US LLP is acting as legal adviser to Dell. Michael Dell: Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz is acting as legal adviser to Mr. Dell. Silver Lake: BofA Merrill Lynch, Barclays, Credit
Suisse and RBC Capital Markets (in alphabetical order) are acting as
financial advisers to Silver Lake, and Simpson Thacher & Bartlett
LLP is acting as legal adviser to Silver Lake. Microsoft: Lazard

Here are the five key new features of BlackBerry 10 you can look out for: Balance:
This feature lets you keep your personal and professional life on the
same device — each within its own silo. In a scenario where the device
is managed by your company, the device can keep your personal apps and
data separate from work apps and confidential data.
Hub:
This is the central place that collates and displays all your messages
(such as text messages, multiple email accounts, chats), social network
updates ( Facebook, Twitter, etc) and other notifications you receive. You can access the Hub at any time by just swiping up and right in one smooth motion.
Keyboard:
BlackBerry has traditionally been known for the QWERTY keyboard.
In the all-touch Z10, the virtual keyboard continually learns what you
type (even proper nouns) and then suggests them automatically. Other
words suggested by it appear over different keys and can be selected by
just swiping upwards on them.
Camera:
A new feature called Time-Shift lets you 'correct' photos after you've
captured them. The device captures information both before and after you
click the shutter. So for instance, if someone in the photo has eyes
closed, you can select his/her face and choose a point in time where the
eyes were open.
BBM:
The popular BBM now supports video chat over a 3G network.
Apart from talking face-to-face, you can also share your camera view or
your screen — in other words, what you see on your screen can be shown
to the contact you are chatting with. This is useful to view
photos/emails/documents together — while the audio chat continues.
The Bottom Line
The change in name to BlackBerry and the new Nasdaq
stock symbol (BBRY) which takes effect on February 4, signify a fresh
start. Since BB10 is different from all previous versions of the BlackBerry OS, it can be considered the first version and it is miles ahead of what the first versions of iOS and Android offered.
But therein also lies BB10's greatest obstacle, that it must compete
with and attract users from rival platforms that are mature and armed
with enormous app libraries.
