I suspect that they will get few takers unless they get loads of iPad 1's ![]() Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD |

I like the idea of MS collecting the iPads and... blending them? Throwing them into a volcano? |

They might be using them to see what makes the iPad so much better than the Surface. ![]() Longer term I want there to be a decent tablet from Microsoft so that there is decent competition out there. I do not see the android devices offering that yet. Price maybe but overall experience is still much better with iOS. |

It is a way of getting their devices in the public hands and getting some form of traction. |

Microsoft did a similar thing with iPods a while back. It was their attempt to get their staff to use Zunes instead. They had an iPod amnesty bin. http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/ ... geNumber=1 ![]() iPod Amnesty Bin by fimoculous, on Flickr Seemingly, it went well. ![]() |
