Samsung Targeting A More Local Approach to the Region
Wasup guys, Check out this article on the Business Daily<http://www.businessdailyafrica.com/Samsung+targets+rural+folks+with+solar+charged+laptop++/-/539552/1227422/-/q64uj3/-/index.html> ; Samsung targets rural folks with solar charged laptop<http://www.businessdailyafrica.com/Samsung+targets+rural+folks+with+solar+charged+laptop++/-/539552/1227422/-/q64uj3/-/index.html> I didn't even know that Samsung was here locally! Seems like Kenya, thanks to Ushahidi & iHub is quickly becoming the destination of choice for all these tech firms ... they've got a local Facebook ( http://www.facebook.com/samsungmobilekenya) and Twitter ( https://twitter.com/#!/SamsungMobileKE) accounts to engage their audience. What do you guys think about this move?
Hi, With all due respect but targetting the rural folk with a laptop priced ad 35,000 shs is way of. However it is a brilliant strategy if they work with government for the regional county offices.

You will be surprised, how many rural folk can easily afford a 35000 laptop after selling their wheat or maize bumper harvest. Unfortunately some might be deciding btw marrying a second (or third) wife and getting the laptop. Samsung should do some catchy ads to that effect On Thu, Sep 15, 2011 at 9:59 AM, Kevin Omondi <kevin.ouma@gmail.com> wrote:

Haha, "engaging the audience". Smart move King. On Thu, Sep 15, 2011 at 8:36 AM, King'ori J. Maina <jobkingori@gmail.com>wrote: Wasup guys,
