From the How Apple Lost the Next iPhone post. "Apart from that, just six pages of applications. One of them was Facebook." Given Apple's level of security, what is the possibility a secret prototype iPhone would be let out of the building without it using a passcode and auto-lock?

Submission + - Is SCO dead yet? Q&A with Pamela Jones of Grok (itpro.co.uk)

An anonymous reader writes: The SCO Group's current fate can be neatly summarised by the title of Pamela Jones' very first article on the case, back in May 2003 — "SCO Falls Downstairs, Hitting its Head on Every Step." In the intervening years PJ and Groklaw can be credited with unearthing and exposing many of the flaws in SCO's case, most notably, obtaining and publishing the 1994 settlement in the USL vs BSDi case, which had been hidden from public view and played a significant role in undermining SCO's claims to the ownership of Unix. Earlier this year PJ memorably compared SCO's persistence in the face of the facts to the black knight in the Monty Python film who claimed "It's only a flesh wound". This article asks PJ about SCO, the impact of Groklaw and future of free software and the law.
