Actually, no. It turns out the Skiff device itself isn't part of this deal. "We have no plans at this time to get into the hardware business," a News Corp. spokeswoman tells DailyFinance. "We acquired Skiff because of its publishing platform."


It's not clear what will become of the device itself, but it appears that Hearst will seek to sell it in separate deal.

Curious as to what stage that Skiff hardware was at up to now...we may never know.
