Now you too can buy all your mobile apps on SD cards. Wait, what?
In addition, some Best Buy outlets will be selling “Mobile App Packs” featuring games pre-loaded onto Micro SD cards, eliminating the need for over the air downloads.
Ok, wait a second.
First off, you’ll get the pleasure of having your phone pre-loaded with an app that guarantees that Best Buy will get paid whenever you buy an application from Handango. My guess is that those “special” apps will also include a “special” price that will make sure no one is losing money. As far as having applications preloaded onto SD cards, I really don’t see the point. I mean, didn’t you buy a smartphone to enable yourself to download applications from anywhere in the world?
Sounds like a pointless partnership aimed at fleecing the stupid or uninformed to me.
