I think Apple will make more profit on their Smart Covers than Motorola, HP and RIM will on their tablets.

These are the new "iPhone bumpers:" accessories with low cost of production and incredible margins. Apple is very, very good at doing this.


really? with 15 millions units sold in 9 months and 90% market I wonder if editors still think that tablets can be a lucrative platform

EDIT: I'm not being sarcastic, but my opinion is not related to the technology. I'm talking about the potentials of tablets as a new media+ads distribution platform and that number doesn't seem so impressive to me, so far.


Wait, is this sarcastic or serious? 15 million units is a lot for something that did not exist before it was released.
