portscan writes “There is an entertaining and telling commentary in the Wall Street Journal about iPhone use by Microsoft employees. Apparently, despite it being frowned upon by senior management, iPhone use is rampant among the Redmond rank and file. The head of Microsoft’s mobile division tried to explain it away as employees wanting ‘to better understand

the competition,’ although few believe that. Nowhere does the spread mention attempts by the company to understand why the iPhone is more appealing to much of Microsoft’s tech-savvy workforce than the company’s own products.”
