September 30, 2011 at 2:00pm • Short URL • Wiki Entry
John Siracusa and Dan Benjamin discuss Amazon’s new tablets, the Google technologies and Amazon cloud services that stand behind them, and what making money by “selling the blades” implies about Amazon’s ability to compete with Apple’s approach of “selling the razors.” Also, predictions for October’s Apple event, and (briefly) Fringe.
