Pete Mortensen - iPhone in the Wild Spotted On My Commuter Rail

And not just...Of all the weeks to need to drive my car. As widely reported on the Net, most notably at Engadget, we've got what looks to be a legit iPhone sighting, courtesy of a snap by Mark Trammell. And not just anywhere, but on Caltrain, the San Francisco to Silicon Valley commuter rail I normally ride twice a day. But this is what happens the second you stop watching for it.
The Boy Genius Report suggests the user in question might actually be Mike Matas, an icon designer. I'm not sure the resemblance is strong enough...iPhone spotted in public? - Engadget

Pete Mortensen - Mozilla COO Calls Jobs on Predatory Safari Plans
No matter what one thinks of Safari for Windows (which has already been patched three days after launch and still can't render A LOT of sites), it's nice to see Apple attacking Microsoft's browser hegemony on its own turf. Right?...No matter what one thinks of Safari for Windows (which has already been patched three days after launch and still can't render A LOT of sites), it's nice to see Apple attacking Microsoft's browser hegemony on its own turf.
Right?
Unfortunately, not really. As John Lilly, COO of Mozilla, points out, when Steve showed off a pie chart depicting his vision of Apple's Windows browser marketshare, he didn't depict MS losing any share at all. Instead, the image just eats up all the alternatives, including the still-rising Firefox. And while I have my problems with Firefox (it strikes me as a program only a software engineer could love), I only want to see Apple bite into Internet Explorer's customers, not the folks who have already sought out an alternative.
The computer world is not the American political scene, and there is room for way more than two players. And so it should be. The more browsers we have, the fewer "browser-specific" features develop and the more readily standards get adopted across platforms. We all stand to benefit from a diverse, competitive markets. A shame that Apple reveals they have no interest in the same.

Pete Mortensen - Joy of Tech: How Steve Lost His Mojo

The general consensus is that Steve Jobs' most recent keynote speech did not measure up to his typical standard. I'm not anywhere near so down on it (maybe because I didn't go and only watched the online feed during stolen moments at work). This Joy of Tech trip sums up the sentiment pretty well. But you'll have to click through to see the source of Steve's sudden suck. Clever, gentlemen. Clever.Via Digg.

Pete Mortensen - Pure Digital Claims it Will Sell Unlocked iPhones
If you're among the many people in the United States who either can't use AT&T/Cingular or choose not to use the carrier's services based on negative experiences, take heart -- there still might be a way to use an iPhone...If you're among the many people in the United States who either can't use AT&T/Cingular or choose not to use the carrier's services based on negative experiences, take heart -- there still might be a way to use an iPhone without the company's blessing. The iPhone ships in four weeks. And though Apple is officially keeping the device exclusive to AT&T for five years, never underestimate the black market for unlocked phones.
According to Ars Technica, Pure Mobile is now claiming it will sell unlocked iPhones for an undisclosed (read: EXORBITANT) rate almost as soon as the devices hit the market. As a T-Mobile user, this is very heartening news, but I can tell you there is no way I'm going to spend $1,000 or more for an iPhone. Maybe when the iPhone nano hits in two years, and someone unlocks that...
Anyone willing to take the unlocked plunge?
