Default Lorry full of Playbooks stolen !
I bet they were gutted when they opened the back up lol

One way of getting rid of them I guess.

I don't think you could $1.7 million worth of play books in a single truck, a convoy maybe....

Or was that the insurance value?

Dont panic, it is just RIM's way of dumping inventory. Put it in a lorry, then arrange to have it stolen, dump them in a landfill and then claim off the insurance ...win

If the thieves have any sense they will offload the playbooks by the side of the road and keep the lorry - at least it is useful!

Imagine the utter disappointment when you realise the lorry full of "tablets" is a load of crappy little computers when you were after Diazepam and stuff.

but if they then nick a lorry load of Diazapam they can flog them to all the poor souls who got a playbook, it should help take the edge off of the disappointment and anger they will feel towards iFad2 owners...
