iPhone in China Faces Yet Another Hurdle – It’s been a hard battle so far, and it doesn’t seem to show any signs of being resolved anytime soon. This time, the App Store is giving China Mobile pause. Apparently they fear that it will lead to the company “losing control” of their subscribers. Apparently they don’t like that they don’t get to handle any of the money that passes between customers and Apple.
Apple Surveying Customers About Apple TV – In an odd move from a company that seems to me to sometimes act in spite of customers’ wants, Apple today released a survey seeking information and feedback about the Apple TV. Some of the questions seem to indicate that Apple is after the market of customers who download or rip their movies, and wants to possibly enhance interoperability between Apple TV and other devices.
Finally, Minority Report Interface Becomes Real – MIT researchers have developed a new technology that would trump multi-touch, if it becomes much less geeky looking. It projects an interface onto pretty much anything, including your hand, or in theory, other parts of the body. Imagine the possibilities!
Apple Says Facebook Not Being Blocked – It was just in yesterday’s Daily Apple, but apparently it wasn’t true. Today an Apple spokesperson denied that Facebook was being blocked in Apple stores. They cite that iPhoto now has Facebook integration, which makes a lot of sense now that I think about it.
Microsoft To Compete With MobileMe, Too – Today we posted about Google’s new contacts/calendar sync service for iPhone users, but it looks like Microsoft wants to join the party too. They’re working on their own contacts/calendar/mail, etc. sync service, under the working title “My Phone.” Creative.
