Apple under scrutiny?
by aki 16 Nov '11

16 Nov '11

One for the road..... "The article says that Psystar, owned by Rudy Pedraza, will sue Apple under two federal laws designed to discourage monopolies and cartels, the Sherman Antitrust Act and the Clayton Antitrust Act, saying Apple's tying of the Mac OS to Apple-labeled hardware is "an anticompetitive restrain of trade," according to attorney Colby Springer of antitrust specialists Carr & Ferrell. Psystar is requesting that the court find Apple's EULA void, and is asking for unspecified damages. In July Apple filed suit against Psystar, the company that for months had been selling the Open Computer, a Mac clone. Apple is suing the company for violating its intellectual property rights." http://www.macnews.com/content/psystar-countersue-apple-anticompetitive-pra… -- **Sent from my Microsoft/Intel based computer.

SIP Trunks
by Michael Pedersen 16 Nov '11

16 Nov '11

Hi everyone, I am looking for suppliers of SIP trunks in Kenya, hoping someone here can give me an overview of whats available. I expect to mainly be calling Safaricom mobile lines, so the best thing (cheapest) would probably be if Safcom provided SIP trunks... but not sure if they do ? If not then who else supplies SIP lines. Kind regards Michael Pedersen

Google Music to Launch today
by Kevin Omondi 16 Nov '11

16 Nov '11

Skunks, As you are aware, Google is launching its Google Music service today. Its has been running on a closed beta and is supposed to work only for the US but for some strange reason since I got invited I have been able to use it in Kenya. I have 8 invites remaining and if interested, private message me. I will share on a first come first served basis. See Press release below In the final hours before launching its music store<http://www.intomobile.com/2011/11/14/tmobile-should-part-google-music-event/>, Google has reportedly signed licensing agreements with three major record labels. A report from the Wall Street Journal<http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052970204190504577040543401572780.h…> claims Google will have deals in place with Sony Music Entertainment, Universal Music Group and EMI when it kicks off the service at a Wednesday event in Los Angeles. Google also has the support of several unnamed independent labels. The music service will allegedly sell songs for $1 each and will let people share one to two free listens per song on Google +. The new online music store will likely plug into Google’s Music Beta and let customers store purchased music in Google’s cloud. Music Beta is a digital locker for people to upload, store and stream their music libraries. It launched earlier this year without record label support which has limited its expansion. With Google now offering licensed content for its Android handsets, the battle for your music dollars is heating up. Apple<http://www.intomobile.com/2011/11/16/google-secures-lastminute-licensing-de…> and its iTunes App Store is the big winner thus far, but Amazon’s Cloud Player service and now Google’s Music service will add some much needed competition into the mix.
