My T-Mobile HTC does what I need it to do. And it was up and running with my outlook exchange server in 5 minutes without needing to contact the IT mafia in my company. Microsoft gives power to the people. Apple gives power to all the girlie men.

That was great:D

There is always "something else"...

Apple's main man

Apple's stock is soaring thanks to the buzz around its new iPhone, says David Pauly in Bloomberg.com, but a dark cloud is looming. There's an outside chance government investigators will implicate CEO Steve Jobs in Apple's stock-option backdating scandal. If the worst happens, Apple's board might have to consider firing the company's visionary co-founder, and "the man in jeans and a black turtleneck may be indispensable."

Jobs is "the force of ambition, innovation, and vision at Apple," says Steven Syre in The Boston Globe. There's no question about that. But "no one should want Apple's chief fired based on what we know today." Besides, a committee of outside directors -- including Al Gore -- has already cleared Jobs. The company clearly does not intend to let its leader get run over by "the options bus."

This has nothing to do with whether the product is good or bad, necessary or not. But in business...what we (the public) don't know is often more important than what we know.
