Scoble’s $10 million Tablet PC promotion idea: Give each airline five Tablets packed with software. What a great idea. Load the Tablets with newspapers, magazines, games, and movies (if possible). It would really be great if they had some kind of Internet service too. If so, these Tablets could be in high demand. Now I’m not sure if five Tablets per airline would be enough–maybe even five Tablets per airplane would lead to passengers competing for the Tablet PCs. But it sure could make things interesting.
I recall there was a Tablet airport promotion in the past. Tablets were located in various terminal kiosks. A few people mentioned online that they saw them. At least on an airplane you don’t have to worry about someone walking away with one.
Your forgetting that the “P” in Tablet PC stands for personal not public. The next time your on a plane ask the overworked flight attendant about this brilliant idea.
