HEY! Dennis, Would you believe that Xiaomi is actually making a showing in the top FIVE activations as reported by Flurry for the holiday season, even though they are only being sold on eBay! Yup, it’s true.

Thanks for the ping. My take is Apple must beware of Xiaomi because it has invisible backers such as the PLA and Foxcomm. All technology gets diffused.

Also see Xiaomi fones and tablets as a nationalist project for China....powerful forces are behind it.

Plus I was way ahead of you and AAPL fanbois on phablets. Note the 2014/02/27 date on this. I read it the week it came out and knew she had a valid take on the “device” and smartfone market. From then on I told all who were in the market for an ifone or smartphone to consider a Samsung phablet and see if it meets their needs
