CrazyExpat Posted March 21, 2012 Report Share Posted March 21, 2012 BANGKOK — Thailand's Cabinet has approved the purchase of 860,000 tablet computers from a little-known Chinese company for students in the first year of primary school. Information minister Anudith Nakornthap said Tuesday he hoped the contract with Shenzhen Scope Scientific Development Co. Ltd. could be signed this month so the devices could arrive before the new school term starts in May. The Chinese company offered a lowest-bid price of $81 for each seven-inch touch screen computer. Three other companies, Huawei, TCL and Haier, were also bidders. http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-505245_162-57400560/thailand-approves-860000-tablets-for-schools/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
