The Fancy takes a 10 percent cut of purchases. Last we checked in, sales were exploding.... Einhorn and Apple CEO Tim Cook met at Allen & Co.'s Sun Valley conference earlier this year. The notoriously private Cook, who does not visibly participate in any well-known social media sites, started using The Fancy shortly afterwards. ..... The Fancy raised a $10 million round at a reported valuation of $100 million last fall, led by PPR, the French luxury conglomerate behind Gucci. It previously raised $6 million in 2010; $2.7 million of that round went to Einhorn and his cofounder, his brother Jack Einhorn .... Twitter cofounder Jack Dorsey and Facebook co-founder Chris Hughes are on the board .... Apple could well build an e-commerce layer into its operating system and let application developers hook into it, giving them a way to make money besides advertising. .... The Fancy's offices are situated above an Apple Store in New York CityMy first time hearing the name The Fancy.
Apple is a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma. No, wait. That was Stalinist Russia .... that’s what’s so great about the current jury trial in Silicon Valley, where Apple is suing Samsung and Samsung is suing Apple. It’s forcing Apple to reveal countless facts and events that it doesn’t want to reveal. .... the discovery and revelation is punishing Apple ..... 1. Steve Jobs changed his mind about a 7-inch iPad .... 2. Apple spent more than a billion dollars marketing iPhone and iPad ...... 3. Apple closely watches the competition ..... 4. Apple listens to its customers ....... 5. Most people buy iPhone cases ..... 6. Apple thought about adding a “kickstand” to the iPad ..... 7. The code-name for the iPhone was “Purple” ..... 8. Apple made a phone instead of a camera or a car ... Schiller also revealed that the iPhone came about because Apple was interested in expanding into other markets. The company actually entertained the ideas of making “a camera or a car,” according to Schiller. .................. A big part of Apple’s aura is the perception of effortless genius. A dozen brilliant designers sit around a kitchen table and dream up the future...... But the Samsung trail has forced Apple to reveal a different reality. Apple works really hard to get its success. Apple spends a fortune to market its products. Apple people speak internally in the language of violence: It’s competitors are “enemies” that must be defeated in a design “fight club.” It pays close attention to the competitive products and customer satisfaction. Apple doesn’t always know what it’s doing.
