Free , really free

Watch out, it's a bit hyped right now :)

Extremely good review of Chris Anderson's new book called ''Free''.
Chris might be pinpointing some extreme trends in the digital marketplace. I just downloaded free audio version, although there's a book at Amazon.

Apple and RIM are profit cows

5 % market makes total of 58 % operating profits

Wall Street Journal: Smart indeed

The two accounted for only 3% of all cellphones sold in the world last year but 35% of operating profits, according to Deutsche Bank analyst Brian Modoff. The disparity will become even starker this year when, he estimates, the two will take 5% of the market in unit terms but 58% of total operating profits.

Check his photo gallery and you'll find he's been busy -- and has been producing some high quality as well as huge quantity.
