"iPad" for $35 !!
Just came across the following link on the BBC web site in the UK. It's a news story about an Ipad-like device which is being developed in India and will retail for the equivalent of $35.
Sounds too good to be true? Link here. |

Paint me a cynic, but I take this report with a large chunk of salt.
Having worked with a lot of large Indian IT companies (TCS, Wipro), I have formed an unfortunate reflex to discount everything they promise by at least 80%. I am not saying they do this on purpose, but some time their promises and estimates seem to be overly optimistic and not always based on factual premises. |
