Ya lower prices. Make it like 99 dollars or something and it will sell like hotcakes. Or hell even cheaper.

It "worked" for HP's TouchPad. They lost $500 on every device, but at least they finally sold those tablets.

So how about giving those PlayBooks away with a box of Cracker Jack's? There must be some kids who want a tablet that can't send email and doesn't have any games.
