With Gareth Myles and Ted Salmon RSS Link: | | | | | | | Feedback, Fallout and Contributions Andy Morris Just been listening to the latest Podcast, and got to the bit about Duty Free and paying in. the US. The reason @Gareth Myles that there is a 6% charge is the conversion to GBP plus a charge to do so, you should always pay in the local currency.. And the way they do the duty free collection is the same as what happens across the globe not just the US (had it in Hong Kong) where you collect at the gate... None of this has anything to do with Tariffs. The...

Amazon is switching its Fire tablets to Android
Malcolm Bryant - 'Open source Android', aka AOSP, is really bare-bones. All OEMs to this point have supplemented AOSP with extra functionality in order to have a viable consumer-facing product. In particular of course there is Google Play Services, which gives access to the Play Store and many other core Android features. Google Play Services is not part of AOSP but it seems extremely unlikely that Amazon would omit it if the intent is to make this tablet a mainstream Android device.
