On the ipad research project, Jobs is wary of Schmidt Pai?

"The fog heavy" uncovered Apple "infernal Affairs"

"People are more than red", this sentence is not only suitable for the entertainment circle, used to describe the Apple is also very appropriate. A few days ago, Wired magazine reporter Stephen Levi in the new book "Fog Heavy" revealed the Apple CEO Steve Jobs and the former Google CEO Eric Schmidt about the ipad's little secret. It is understood that Apple once let Eric Schmidt as Apple director for three years, jobs in the development of the ipad before he found that he believed the wrong person, thus concealing the development of the ipad. Schmidt became an "inside Ghost" suspect.

In fact, Apple earlier seized the "ghost", suspected in the new Apple before the release of product information, thereby benefiting. Wen/journalist Quiet

A colleague becomes a competitor

Stephen Levi's new book, Fog, points out that Mr. Jobs was furious at Google's headquarters for seeing the dual-pointing zoom (pinch-to-zoom) feature on the Android phone, and that Android was stealing the iphone's important function. As a result, Mr. Jobs decided to keep the privacy of Schmidt, Google's CEO and Apple's board member, on the ipad's development program. In addition, Apple does not enter the search business, Google has entered the mobile phone business, which is also a reason for the Chowa Lord angry.

Foreign media believe that it is Mr Jobs's "stupid" trust that makes it easy for future Google to grasp how Apple operates, and that the three-year-old Apple director, Schmidt, is likely to become the biggest "mole".

With two companies increasingly competing in the mobile Arena, Schmidt eventually resigned as chairman of Apple in August 2009. 6 months later, Apple launched the ipad.

However, there are objections from foreign it analysts, pointing out that the September 2008 shipment of the first Android phone, that is, G1, actually did not squeeze the release function, until February 2010 Google Nexus One mobile software only with this function. In the meantime, Motorola and other Android dealers added the feature themselves.

Apple's ghost receives kickbacks

In fact, before Apple each new product launch, there are peripheral manufacturers in advance "revealed" its protective cover, and the hit rate is quite high. So the word "inner ghost" always exists.

Last year, foreign media reported that one of Apple's product supply managers had been jointly identified by the FBI and the IRS, it is suspected of collecting kickbacks and bribes from six of neighboring plants and providing confidential files of Apple products to the peripheral vendors to get a better price when talking to Apple about licensing contracts. It is reported that the product manager also used a number of U.S. domestic and foreign bank accounts and a company's name, to collect kickbacks, bribes to avoid being found by Apple.

So Apple's secrecy needs to be strengthened.

Apple suppliers

Start producing white iphone

According to a Reuters Hong Kong April 14, two sources said that after the postponement of nearly 10 months, the consumer electronics giant-Apple suppliers have begun to produce a white iphone, and will be sold within one months. Taiwan's Hon Hai will be involved in assembling an apple-white iphone, a person familiar with the matter said. The company's senior vice president for marketing, Phil Schiller, previously posted a message on Twitter that the white iphone would be on the market this spring.
