Comments on: Oh no, Samsung has a Passbook wallet app, too http://gigaom.com/2013/02/27/oh-no-samsung-has-a-passbook-wallet-app-too/ Sat, 18 May 2013 07:34:14 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Peter Kropf http://gigaom.com/2013/02/27/oh-no-samsung-has-a-passbook-wallet-app-too/#comment-1316500 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 17:13:05 +0000 http://gigaom.com/?p=614970#comment-1316500 This is Samsung being Samsung. Agressively quick. Google will add this passbook functionality soon.

But note well as Samsung seems to be playing hardball with Google now. Samsung is a “damn the torpedoes” company.

Perhaps a detente between Apple and Google will grow as they both realize Samsung plays for keeps and is quite adept at using the courts to further their MO – copy aggressively, become dominant, make any IP issues dissapear; they’ve done it in every business they enter.

Once again, better marketing doesn’t make it first.

PassWallet does the job.
