Quote to Note: Newspapers and Android Tablets

August 11, 2011

I read two different news items which informed me that Apple has stopped the sale of Samsung tablets in countries far from Kentucky. Ominous if accurate. Then I came upon “Newspaper Eyes Creating Subsidized Samsung Tablet.” The idea seemed a bit of a reach, but, hey, those newspaper managers are sharp business professionals. I am not sure how many of my neighbors would put down their jug of firewater to browse a tablet, but one never knows until one tries. What caught my attention was a quote to note, allegedly made by “one insider”, a great source for sure. Here the quote perches:

“If it turns out to be a failure, it will be a fantastically interesting failure.” Another source commented: “I would be shocked if it was successful.”

There it is.
