Remembering the Apple Newton's Prophetic Failure and Lasting Impact | Wired Design | Wired.com
In product lore, high profile gadgets that get killed are often more interesting than the ones that succeed. The Kin, the HP TouchPad, and the Edsel are all case studies in failure–albeit for different reasons. Yet in the history of those killings, nothing compared to the Apple Newton MessagePad. The Newton wasn’t just killed, it was violently murdered, dragged into a closet by its hair and kicked to death in its youth by one of technology’s great men. And yet it was a remarkable device, one whose influence is still with us today. The Ur tablet. The first computer designed to free us utterly from the desktop.

Google’s Secret: They Don’t Care
Google is a great hardware company because they don’t care about hardware. They care about the experience users have with Google services.

In order to maximize the number of people having this great experience, you need low price.

Obama administration vetoes Apple sales ban in U.S.
The Obama Administration has vetoed a decision by the U.S. International Trade Commission that would have led to a sales ban on older iPhones and iPads.
In an unexpected move, The Obama Administration vetoed an earlier ruling by the U.S. International Trade Commission that would have resulted in a sales ban of some older Apple devices.
That ban, set to formally begin on Monday, was decided in early June after Samsung accused Apple of infringing on its patents. The President had 60 days to review the decision and intervene, something that hadn't been done in an ITC decision since 1987.
