Tiptop is a new way to pay that combines Instant Trade-In & Pay-in-4 at checkout.
Pretty brutal on Amazon’s Kindle:
I’m sure there will always be dedicated devices, and they may have a few advantages in doing just one thing. But I think the general-purpose devices will win the day because I think people just probably aren’t willing to pay for a dedicated device. You notice Amazon never says how much they sell; usually if they sell a lot of something, you want to tell everybody.
