I found this article Interesting because it is contradicting that Nokia, who is currently in process with merging with Microsoft, would produce a similar product to the company that will be working together. An analogy would be two people working in a team but deep down they are actually competing with another.<\/p>\n

I think after they merge, one has to be eliminated in the market because it is unproductive to sell almost an identical product. If I was the C.E.O I would eliminate the Microsoft tablet. Personally I think Nokia will have a greater market although it is not a huge brand in U.S. However, I think Nokia can focus its market in Asia.<\/p>\n

From a consumer\u2019s point of view, by juxtaposing the two tablets, it reveals the differences in their hardware. Nokia uses 2.2GHz Qualcomm while Microsoft uses 1.7 GHz Nvida Tegra 4. This shows Nokia\u2019s tablet has a faster processer and will not \u201clag\u201d as much.<\/p>\n

Although the price is higher than Microsoft, the demand for Nokia\u2019s tablet seems greater, thus I would immediately stop spending expenses to produce two products that compete in the same market and focus on the Nokia tablet instead.<\/p>\n
