Google Plans Spending Spree to Promote Android One in India
Google Plans Spending Spree to Promote Android One in India | TechnoBuffalo

"Last month Google announced Android One, the company�s plan to bring Android smartphones to developing countries�specifically India�for about $100 each. Now two new reports suggest the search giant is gearing up for a massive marketing blitz to promote these new handsets, though exactly how much money Google plans to spend is up for debate.

According to The Information, Google is planning on spending �several hundred million dollars� to promote new Android One phones in India. Then there�s a another report from The Economic Times claiming the company will spend significantly less (around $17 million) to promote the new devices. Clearly Google is throwing its weight behind Android One, though how many millions of dollars it is actually spending is still a mystery."

Looks like BB is getting hit everywhere these days. Hopefully they can figure something out.

Hopefully BB can overcome "several hundred million dollars" that will be spent on advertising...sheesh. Let's hope the Z3 sells quickly.

Not a chance. They will sell some devices but cannot compete with the big boys any more. Too bad.
