Quote: A golden parachute is an agreement between a company and an employee, usually a top executive, that specifies the benefits a person would receive in the event of termination of employment. The practice provides reassurance that a company wil…

I can't imagine this being the case. If it's one thing that Apple has demonstrated in the past decade it's that they don't want to be beholden to anyone for strategic software or services. Look at what happened with waiting for Flash to mature in th…

I think Sprint has some work to do before courting Apple customers: http://sports.sprint.com/speed/ (I'm looking at that using desktop Safari with Click-to-Flash enabled; I have no idea if it redirects to a mobile site if accessed using iOS.)

You know, I think we need a few more replies to the 'China practically owns the US' comment because it hasn't been discussed to death.

Well, at least we get to see another photo of the chinese guy in the blue shirt (who still needs a catchy name, btw). It's been a while...
