The statement from Amazon was published by Jessica Lessin, a former employee of The Wall Street Journal, which earlier the rumor about the free smartphone to the world helped. Amazon would, according to its sources, is a smartphone free want to offer to earn money from the sale of books, music and movies to the phone to play. Amazon already offers e-readers and tablets, but it still has no smartphone on the market.
The rumors about a phone from Amazon have been going a few years, but this is the first time it was mentioned that it is a free model would be. A plausible explanation for the misinformation could be that the phone in mobile subscriptions in the United States without payment would be offered; in that case the price of the phone no higher than about 400 euro. Also, Amazons tablets are in many cases cheaper than that. Lessin gives no explanation for the difference between the statement from Amazon and the information that they received.
