If somebody makes a better one just forces the other company to make an even better one. If somebody makes a better app then it forces the company to produce a better product.

Open up or get worked around--that's their options.
I am totally confused by this post. I don't disagree with any of it but it provides no arguments for. Palm has the opportunity to create a product to compete with the iPhone and using iTunes media by simply coming up with an innovative way of getting the library's content. Instead, they got lazy and pretend that they are an iPhone.

How is this innovative or good for competition?

I don't care that Sony made a motion controller but I would if they did it by allowing you to plug in a Wiimote into a PS3 or used copyrighted Nintendo technology.
