More drivel. Maybe you can show us two huge competitors, where one has started using the other software? You can not, because it hasn't happened before. Palm have a lot of options, there are lots of free music organisers they can use, they have chosen to use iTunes, which they know they are not allowed to do.
- SirWart 17y agoI think it's important to note that the major reason for Palm to use iTunes is not because Palm didn't want to build their own music organizer, but because most people already use iTunes to organize their music, and it's a huge pain in the ass to switch or worse use multiple organizers.
- neilc 17y agoWhy is it "important to note that"? Palm obviously have their reasons for preferring iTunes, but that doesn't make faking the vendor ID any more legitimate.
- nailer 17y agoWho are Palm harming and how? Pre end users don't see the vendor ID, so aren't being deceived. iPhone end users keep working. Apple aren't under pressure to support Palm, they can simply say the device is unsupported and to contact Palm for issues.
- fhars 17y agoIndeed. That is almost as evil as putting "like Gecko" into the browser string for a browser that is clearly not based on gecko.
