The real interesting thing in the article isn't that the nerd number bids, it's how the alliances formed. They weren't set going in, people hit their limit then looked to buy into an alliance. Intel chose to partner with Google instead of Microsoft and Apple. Android vendor Sony-Ericsson went with Apple instead of Google.

- solipsist 15y agoFrom what I've read, Sony Ericsson was not taking part in the bid. Sony and Ericsson, the two individual companies themselves, were though.
- cpeterso 15y agoThe bidding groups had names like "Rockstar" (Apple and friends) and "Ranger" (Google). Are the actual parties behind the names secret during bidding?
