Now this is something to look at...

Just an update before I comment on the article I read.

Apple: has practically not seen any percentage change for a 7-day span, but is down  2.2% since Friday.

Time Warner: is down 2.9% over the past 7 days. As expected I don't like the move to team up with Facebook.

Google: Down 1.5% over the same 7 days. And even more before I posted the application security breech. According the efficient market hypothesis, the market has reacted before the public sees the news.


Now to get to the article I found about Barnes & Noble releasing a tablet of their own. For a fraction of the cost of the iPad and the Xoom, you can buy a $200 no-nonsense tablet that is great for e-books and reading other forms of media. The author of the article is basically telling us about his experience thus far with it. He said that although not internet accessible at purchase, there is a legal download Google's Android platform. I don't know how Google will respond to this, whether it's charging for the download, removing it completely, or not taking any action at all.
