Interesting.
For sure, there is money involved here and we're talking about LOT of money.
To me, what this truly means is that Apple, somehow, is afraid of the small Kindle Fire success. Yes, not an iPad but has sold a bunch since it came out and started selling on Target and online.
I honestly do not care too much but believe Walmart is still selling those (for those interested on getting one there)
It would be interesting to see, what's Amazon next step. Because having mortar brick store presence is actually a good thing. Some people like that human interaction or really check the device prior online purchase. Without Target, I guess that only big presence for Kindle will be Walmart. Unless they plan to ship to "Fiesta Market" or "Kroger", or even "HEB", some groceries stores we do have in Texas, hahaha... That would be funny seeing the Kindle close to the papaya or apple island.
