Is Everybody Trying To Beat Apple At Their Own Game, And Failing?
Dec 5th, 2008 | By James Lewin | Category: iPhone, iPods & Portable Media Players 
Today there were a lot of big tech stories that, on the surface, seem unrelated:
- Verizon is rolling out a Blackberry Storm OS update;
- S&P Cuts Motorola’s rating to junk;
- AT&T hopes to have their own uber-phone OS;
- Dell is charging a $150 premium for Windows XP;
- The Kindle may be getting pwned by the Sony Reader, which is getting pwned by an iPhone app; and
- Obama rocks the iPod, not the Zune.
Maybe these stories are completely unrelated – but it seems that there’s a common theme: everybody’s trying to be Apple at their game, and failing.
Is anybody gaining ground against Apple at anything right now?
