Remember the Surface Mini, a device that got axed at the last minute?
Microsoft gave it a shout out in its earnings report today.
The company noted in its hardware section that its “[c]urrent year cost of
revenue included Surface inventory adjustments resulting from our transition
to newer generation devices and a decision to not ship a new form factor.”
Ding.
The Mini was yanked from the Surface Pro 3 event at what I’ve heard was the
last possible minute. The Mini, so hastily squirreled away, has cropped up
here and there in manuals and the like.
Microsoft’s earnings call is now, so we’ll have to see if the company
addresses it specifically. Surface revenue for the period was $409 million,
down from its sequential quarter’s tally of $494 million.
We’ll have more from the call shortly. |
