They are only worth about the same as that crummy HP tablet...even a little less since there is no Android yet.

1,700,000 / 100 = 17,000 playbooks
Quote:
The truck had 22 pallets of PlayBooks, which is equal to about 5000 units. The tablets were coming from a distribution center in Ontario, Canada.
5,000 x 100 = 500,000
So, they are claiming a $1.7 million loss on $0.5 million worth of product. Yeah...insurance fraud.
