Bono challenges Apple and iPhone


Bono's firm Elevation Partners, is now increasing their share of the Palm from 27 to 39 percent, and it can be seen by the theinquirer.co.uk who suffered from an attack on Apple, Steve Jobs and especially iPhone. Bono has had a large star of Apple's legendary boss, but after that he has allied with many former Apple people in Elevation Partners, and invested heavily in Palm, so he was now persona non grata with the Cupertino-firm.


It does not help Bono and Jobs' friendship that celebre, philanthropic rock star was seen with both Bill Gates and Michael Dell in the past year.


Elevation Partners has previously bought and then sold Pandemic Studios, the owner of the highly successful game company BioWare, the Electronic Arts with high margins and is estimated to have a good $ 1.9 billion at the coffin bottom, so support for Palm should certainly be taken seriously.
