Oh no's my brain is melting! Is a glass of water half full or half empty???
"The new small ipad due out this year!"
"I know we said last year it was coming out but this year we're sure!"
"OK, OK. We know the last two years we said it was coming out but this is the year!"
Are these stories ran by the seventh day evangelists?
Cover the range of practical screen sizes (avoid losing a substantial part of the market that would prefer that size)
Offer a less expensive option - desperately needed to win the education market in the end.
Remember when the iPad was first announced. Many saw it as simply a big iPod Touch and thought it would only have a limited market. Pundits were speculating that total sales would be very low. But it was a paradigm shift. It was a computer for the masses. My 86 year old MIL loves hers. They sold tens of millions.
Now look at the education market. $500 is too much to spend on a child or ask a parent to spring for. $250 isn't much more than we used to expect in terms of graphing calculators. They have smaller fingers, and are more comfortable working on small screens. This has to happen to capture the education market.
:eek:
1. Keep repeating same rumour each year.
2. Get page hits.
3. Proclaim yourself winner if it eventually happens!
