Comment on With Obi Smartphones, John Sculley Takes Old Lessons From Apple and Pepsiparent

Comments

Yes, I found the name Obi for a world phone an odd pick. OBI is a strong brand in Germany and has also presence other European countries (Poland, Czech Republic, Hungary, etc.).

When I think of "Obi" and phones, I think of this VOIP hardware company that has been around for several years.[0] This new venture really didn't do their due diligence on the name.
