At least two years too late, if it happens at all.

Nokia: "Do it my way, or I'm taking my patents and going home!"

Apparently, ETSI cannot be trusted to do things in an ETSI-approved manner.

RIM is ceding the consumer market and focusing on the business market.

http://www.businessweek.com/ap/2012-03/D9TQDUEO3.htm

Hm, I thought they had already lost the business market and were clinging on the 10-15 year olds who are addicted to the free 'pinging'. At least, that was the case in Holland about 2 years back. They have a mighty challenge in front of them if they don't want to end up like Palm.

What's even funnier is that Blackberry/RIM can be replaced by Apple and Apple can be replaced by Microsoft.

The company is now paying the price for failing to heed calls to move quickly to license its operating system and consider other strategies to compete with industry titan Apple, said Peter Misek, managing director of Jefferies & Co.

What a journey.
It was ceded for them. Like me saying I've decided to pay taxes. It was decided for me. ;)

Well Jeffe, you just need to become a Billionaire Antipodean mining magnate and then paying taxes become "optional"...

Not sure where to put this -- but if any Sporkers know of anyone with iOS programming experience who has free time and would like to work on a relatively simple project that could be practice but zero pay, let me know. (I really sold that, didn't I? I'm just trying to build a simple but perhaps fun iPhone game with Facebook integration.)

I don't have the skillzā„¢ anyhow but "practice, but zero pay" sums up most of my career...

The only song that you can buy in-app now is "Final Countdown."

I don't like that with the app store any app you pay for can potentially do that. Not Kosher. Not even Halal...

Apparently America's worst company...

Personally, I think that's a bit tough. Surely big oil, big tobacco & big pharma win that prize...

Don't forget big corn (or big food generally).

Looking forward to giving this a try. Neither the Music app nor Instacast has been all that great for me.

Yeah, it was amazingly arcane where the video podcasts from webdesigntuts+ went after I sync'd them to my iPad. Music app? No. iTunes app? Nuh huh. Anywhere? Turns out... in the Movies app. Huh? I'd found them in the iTunes Store under podcasts, they're in my "Podcasts" sidebar item in iTunes, I made a playlist and other playlists show up in the Music app... .
