One of the neat things about the DOJ's lawsuit against Apple over 
e-book pricing is that we get an inside glimpse into what Apple was 
thinking when it decided to open the iBookstore.

At the time Amazon was just starting its Kindle ecosystem, and the 
iPad was still in development.

We read through the DOJ's lawsuit against Apple and publishers and 
we've pulled out the most interesting elements. (It's not every day 
you get to read some of the emails from Apple's top executives.)

After reading the case, it's hard to see how Apple didn't work with
