After breaking two of the phones just weeks after purchase is why I’ve invested in the lifeproof case this time around. This also adds the fact that I can now take under-water pics with my iPhone which is pretty cool as well. I do like the design of the original phone but when you crack the screen as many times as I have, in my case, you need a case.

Hanging fight club poster was most interesting. I think every iphone repair expert should know these facts to impress its customers :)

What secrets did they give away? There is no story here. Go to the web and you can find out more you don’t know about Apple.

Erica–this WSJ opening paragraph rang a bell when I read it; it’s almost a carbon copy of your exec.summary. And it only appeared < 2 hours ago. Strange.

"SAN JOSE, Calif.—Apple Inc. (AAPL), one of the world's most secretive companies, is finding there's a price in pushing its grievances against rival Samsung Electronics Co. (005930.KS) in federal court: disclosure."

The biography you’re referring to is probably Isacsson’s (and not Abramson’s). And the comentary you’re referring to probably aren’t by Schilling, but by Schiller…

The iPhone 3 with its curved ceramic back slipped easily into the pocket and didn’t seem to need a case to me, but the heavier iphone 4 with glass back and front does.

Handling the project internally was probably the best idea! Jobs knew they had to do this with a clean slate. None of this “when I worked at RIM, we did this” nonsense.

Plus, Apple is the only one with the experience & capability to design a UI typically found on computers, and build the hardware around it. Hence all the knock-offs we see now… All made by disassembling iPhones to see how the hardware works, and scrounging around for some software to run it (Android).

“The revelation of details like this show us that even if Apple ends up winning this case, it’s still lost something: mystery. Everything about the way Apple conducts itself as a business makes clear that it absolutely hates giving up this kind of information outside of a very small group within the company.”
This can be said of any company developing new products, even Samsung. Every company wants to keep the knowledge of what they are developing to as few people as possible, no point letting everyone know what products they are working on that might hit the market. But I guess this is a surprise.
