Derrick and Rael,


I think once again you guys have hit on an important topic. Thanks for sharing your conversation.


It's puzzling that iTools isn't used more to sell the idea of owning a Mac. Apple is selling this digital hub idea now, but as Steve Jobs pointed out a couple of years ago at MacWorld, there are benefits to being both the hardware and software provider.


iTools is a nice example of what can be done. These were web services before there was "Web Services". I hope Apple continues to develop these offerings.

    You know, this is an interesting point you make about Web Services. I think the tech community is struggling to understand what Web Services are and how they can be used in day to day life. But now that I think about it, iTools is a good example of this type of technology ... cool!
