Telefonica is in talks with six additional handset
makers, Matthew Key, the
head of the company’s digital unit, said at the investor meeting.
“We’re overly reliant on Android and that’s not a strategically strong
position to be in,” he said.
To persuade Latin American consumers to upgrade to smartphones, and not take
an Android device, the devices will need to be priced at about $100, Domingo
said.
I don't think people is going back to the dumbphone experience. Using
a smarphone with a app shop is like a religious experience that change
how people think about software. Even Windows users are changed
"You mean I can download and test any game in seconds, by only knowing
the name?, and that will not break the os, or make it less stable?,
just to be sure... theres hundreds of games and apps like that to
download? :-OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO".
The more people use a smarphone, the less people that will want to use
a phone designed following the specifications of Telefonica.
Plus Telefonica may decide that the browser in that phone should not
use Google, but some self-made search engine. Or his own wikipedia,
and not the best one wikipedia :D
