This guy had to drop into assembly language to figure out how to read the accelerometer in his iPhone. These people are SMART. If I were Steve Jobs (real, not

third party apps and thus helping my business, rather than trying to
knife my (admittedly stupid) business partner.
I know all the arguments about Jobs condones the hacking because
it’ll convince AT&T to loosen up. I don’t buy them. In all the
historical “Jobs is thinking three moves ahead!” stories I remember
hearing about DRM, iPods, and so on, the simplest explanation turned
out to fit best.
