Well, not surprised at all. Sales of mobile phones has not really been their forte. They should just keep dominating the PC space instead. Youngpo413: Bro, i don tell you before, fruity aint going nowhere, "iphans" plenty.... instead, two OS would exist; Android and iOS. Thats gonna be a major duopoly mehn!!! 1 Like |
