Beats and Bits – Arkansas Where Are You?, Etc…

– Here we are mid-October, and still no confirmation from Lenovo regarding MTK MT6589 / MTK6589 project “Arkansas”. Let’s assume either the Arkansas project doesn’t exist, or at the very least, it’s not going to be released in October.

– TCL has planned an MTK MT6589 / MTK6589 phone to be massed produced and released in Q2 2013.

– Reports show that single core sales in China are at 80%, with dual-core running at 15-20% and quad-core at 3-5%

– Regarding Kai Excursion, many customers have been been complaining about the high 1799 yuan price. Kai has listened and released a more affordable 1299 yuan version with MTK MT6575 / MTK6575 dubbed the T1s, as opposed to the dual-core MTK MT6577 / MTK6577 T1. My guess is this decision will piss potential customers off even more.
