A preview review of the Sendo X

(And what's a 'Sendo X' you might ask? Well, it's a pretty smart phone.)

infoSync.no today posts a 'preview' of the new Series 60 phone. In short: It does many things right where the competitors do 'em wrong.

A quote from the review: We'll leave the final words to Sendo's Ron Schaeffer, who expressed himself better than most people when commenting on Sendo's bundle of MMS templates for the X: "We think that if you can make people look stupid in a picture, you're more likely to send it as a MMS." Needless to say, we agree.

BusinessWeek: Apple! Bring on iPhoto for Windows!

In today's article, Alex Salkever finds Apple has an opportunity here. Sell iPhoto to Windows users for 30 USD, he says. However: While it's easy to get people to try Apple's software by giving away iTunes, Windows users might just opt to Adobe's Photoshop Album 2.0, which costs 40 USD. And giving away iPhoto on Windows doesn't make sense, because Apple doesn't sell digicams.
But the main question, that arises: Should Apple create more Windows compatible software - at all? Or is that distracting users from buying Macs?
