I’m the in the white porsche ca license plate ‘mymod-s’
Let’s get deeper than getting used or forced to chew madness, Nokia which had distribution center all over the world, and once upon a time had more than close to 1 billion mobile users. Earned in billions, and have capability to turn table around and earn in billions again, has its own software division and research unit, loads of patent and talents, better name and reach all over the world. This was acquired for 7.5 billion. On the other hand, Oculus which is just a prototype, and has loads of disadvantages such as size and portability, Heats up head and brain if worn for more than 1 hour, do not have proper customers, hardware or software, no distribution centers, and not much complexity in hardware, than just some headset and closer screen, better and more comfortable options available in market. 2 billion for this is utter waste and FB has literally burnt that money to waste
Whats app, which was acquired for 19 billion can only make that money after 20+ years and till then it may even die. Many started using competitive apps now. This was the worst of the worst purchase and I have ever seen in my entire life. I dont believe in promises, but i only take performance. FB has showcased fear of getting killed in market by wasting so much, and In various angle, FB had showcased no respect for investors money.
Now, i seriously doubt the credibility or intention of some analyst who support FB madness.
too early
