Economy fix: Live your days to the fullest, only buy things you really need, sell the things you don't need anymore. Recycle and re-used your products rather than just buying new ones. Make sure the world is there for your (or your friends) children.

Looking forward to extend the use of my iPhone 3G with this JuicePack!

OMG, This is unreal.

I dont think this is what they meant at all.
Look a the iPhone CLONES (meaning utter hardware AND software clones)
These are obvious targets.
Palms take on a touch UI is not new, nor is it a copy if Apples iPhone UI.
Both om them uses a BSD type OS in the bakground.

I think that both can draw inspiration from each other and thrive equally without IP disputes.

I like the New Pre and yes I have an iPhone.
I would like if Apple released a FW that enables other apps to multitask and that they did it in an Apple way and not copying Palms Pre way of doing it.

We should all remember that Palm has been in the phone arena way longer than Apple has, the Pre is not their second phone, as the iphone 3G is for Apple.

I am sure most Patent disputes here if there where to be any, will end up in settlement rather then law suits as both with benefit from this.

Companies makes patent for two large reasons, either to prevent someone else from using what you want to use or to inhibit them from using it even if you are not going to. (then there are standards patents and such of course)

is that a FLOPPY drive?? (trying not to pee on myself laughing)

Holy crap, that's an OLD PowerBook with OS9 ;)

Actually my company still uses Wirus2000

ew!

I agree that we can all use more environmentally friendly products, and I am glad that it's being looked at. I just think that there are bigger issues than a phone.
Sure there are a couple of them out there, but no nearly as many a thos individually wrapped candy that will be handed out this halloween, or all these "just throw it away when your done" bathroom products that I am sure are not good for the environment either.
Apple: Get better, listen to GP
GreenPeace: Stop the madness..

I highly doubt that the iPhone uses material that other phones (HTC?) does not.
I am pretty sure GP uses the iPhone as a means to get attention.

Thats right, go with the more "innovative" once and run Wirus Vista/XP

M$ Fanboi!

It's interesting how it seems to be more expensive than the iMac..
This article says: $1,300 for a 1.5GHz Core 2 Duo processor
When the 20" iMac 2.0GHz Intel Core 2 Duo is $1,199.00
Yes the gw seems to have more RAM, but still.. I could run both Mac and Windows on the iMac at least.
