Re: Plesase stop using the term 'Landfill' android
I think the implication, realistic or not, is that the cheapest devices won't be discounted if they don't sell, they'll be buried or recycled (recycle please!) because the manufacturer makes more money by selling you the cheap version of the next good thing. It's Android - or it may be - because you can put Android on a device for no licensing fee, although if you want your company to be friends with Google then it isn't that straightforward. But in China there are alternative Android infrastructures to Google.
And meanwhile the poor folk in Africa can probably use all the IT they can get, although I have an antique PC that I don't think they're going to thank me for. It's probably a real power hog, for a start, given how little actual work it does.
