I’m from South Africa. I think it will be a tough sell. For the device to gain traction it must target the low-end of the market so the price-point is interesting for a number of reasons. Consider that the per-capita income is about $11000 p.a, and that this country has one of the highest Gini indexes in the world the target market must be earning vastly little. Combine that with a generally a under-educated economically struggling population and the fact that “Blackberry” has about 70% of the smartphone market you’re looking at a market unlike the USA or some first-world country. Now I’m no an economist but I’ve tried selling a few tablets myself and what I’ve learned from it is that unless you can bring them a cheap well-built tablet, and this is key, that has integrated 3G connectivity you are not going to move many units. ADSL is still incredibly expensive and only about 13% of us have internet access anyway. For those us who have uncapped internet and 3G access and are looking to buy a tablet, an iPad on credit seems attractive but is still seen as a “gadget”. The main motivating factor in acquiring a tablet is still entertainment (movies, music) and education. All things that require very good battery life and a big screen.
