    So now the press releases will read like this:

    "Bob's Software announces the development of the Universal Phlegm
    Calculator for the Apple iPhone. When reached for comment, Bob was unable
    to provide any further details due to a NDA."

    This first time Apple sues for something like that, the FTC will eat them
    for lunch for unfair and uncompetitive business practices.

    Of course,I believe Apple will have a hard time defending this action in
    civil court. They can prove no damages from the disclosure of this
    information except for the bad press created by a decision made by the
    company itself and due to no action of the developer.

    This smells so much like the Apple of the 80's. They start gaining
    traction in a very profitable market and start pissing away market share
    due to their own arrogance and desire to control the consumer. Between the
    needs to totally control the hardware and software, they have traveled back
    in time to when they gave the computer market to the IBM clones.

    Google is going to eat Apple for lunch.
