It sounds like a good plan to me, but what do I know about business.

Of course there will be a million issues around it. Will Apple try to sue anyone making anything that resembles an iPad?

I like the car in the first 1/4 of the video.

Yeah, I think it is soviet-made, too. ZIL is an exclusive auto-maker for big Russian/Soviet figures, like presidents, prime ministers, generals, etc.

Thanks. I couldn't make out the name of the maker on the front. I'm always curious about Soviet things. I was rather delighted to ride in a lot of Ladas in Cuba.
