    Thanks, ernexbcn, interesting article.

    I still think that they are overreaching because, while I understand the goal of control to create better products, what they want to control is too big. Controlling the internet by limiting the way things get created and then forcing people to re-create for you, is, I think, too much to ask.

    The Zillow example is good. So when the google phones and other smart phones and tablets show their websites with no problem, a certain % of people will NOT choose Apple. And that will grow.

    monospaced, Apple has owned the smartphone market because they were smart, and first to market, and could dictate what people could do. But everyone else is catching up and the rules change. Google, Microsoft, HP, etc...are big companies with deep pockets...and they aren't going to sit by and let Apple tell people what to do.

    • You could say the same thing about the walkman market and look at it nowPIZZA
    • how so?twokids
    • yeah, how so? The walkman just mobilized existing technologies, that's what made it so successful - you could use what you owned on the goformed
