Carbon nanotubes may have the same risk of asbestos

Carbon nanotubes may have the same risk of asbestos

"Day by creating" an environment issue 7, 2008 Featured Articles published in the carbon nanotubes on human health effects reported. The first line in the product development need to reach people who need to pay attention to carbon: carbon nanotubes and asbestos is likely to have the same risk. Front-line staff, please be careful with caution to avoid inhaling.

The author is not to deny the new carbon nanotube materials. On the contrary, the author makes a high-strength materials, semiconductors, fuel cells have great quality and the possibility of very high expectations. Therefore, in addition to the advantages only hope that the reader, but also see the shortcomings of this material. Hope to establish safe storage and use of carbon nanotubes "risk management" approach to expand the scope of application of carbon nanotubes.

"Day by creating" story published in Japan, introduced the National Institute of Drug Safety Food Hygiene Research Centre biological toxicity test results the Department. See Journal of experimental conditions, in the experiment, when the mice come in contact with multi-layer carbon nanotubes, the higher the incidence of mesothelioma. The results suggest that carbon nanotubes may be as dangerous as asbestos.

However, for this experiment, for the following reasons: (1) subjects with the "p53 deficient mice *"; (2) is not input by the mouth, but the carbon nanotubes directly into the peritoneal; (3) a large number of inputs, so some experts said the results need to carefully look at. In fact, I first learned that the experimental results, we also hold the same concerns. However, I consulted the Minister of the Institute toxic Kanno pure, I feel that this experiment in "Toxicology" the fact is very reasonable. Kanno Minister explained below.

" (On (1) and (2)) past experience, out of recognition of a substance hazardous (dangerous, hazardous) for the purpose, and assumed that the material would cause mesothelioma cancer, intraperitoneal injection test with significant. carcinogenesis mechanism from view, p53 deficient mice are considered suitable for predicting mesothelioma cancer samples. " " (On (3)), we intend to launch a study on the toxicity of the maximum dose. If this dose failed to cause cancer, then the substance is completely 'safe'. Conversely, if the asbestos material with the same positive reaction to produce the same kind of tumor, then enough to doubt its 'harmful'. "

Indeed, Kaolv to the actual De work environment, work conducted in input, that were put into the mouth, then, can be further Tigao right Renti the impact of speculation O'clock in the Jing Du. But this experiment requires long time. By contrast, Kanno Minister and others pay more attention to the timeliness of warnings, choose to harm in the short term to confirm the experimental conditions. As expected, the results did not identify the "innocent." Conclusion is that "carbon nanotubes and asbestos-containing the same shape / size of the particles, there are significant risks. In labor management and product development need to pay attention to prevent inhalation."

I have previously introduced, asbestos induced mesothelioma for two main reasons. One of asbestos from the nose and mouth inhalation, will along the respiratory tract and bronchial deep into the lungs, to reach the air and blood oxygen, carbon dioxide in alveolar gas exchange. Of course, there is a variety of body defense mechanisms, enabling foreign body removed from the body together with the saliva, etc., but asbestos is invalid. This is because the asbestos is slender and small. Another reason is that the asbestos can not be dissolved, and has been retained in the body. In general, alveolar outside pH 7.4, weakly alkaline, and alveolar macrophages of the enzyme pH 4.8, was strongly acidic. In other words, the material can not withstand such strong acid chemical dissolution, it may persist in the body.

In summary, because of asbestos danger, "slender", "insoluble." And not in its chemical composition. Anti-speaking, as long as the asbestos is so "slim", "insoluble" materials, there is the same as the risk of asbestos. In the multi-layer carbon nanotubes, µm-sized fibrous or rod-like particle is the case.

Kanno Minister also ongoing experiments to answer questions raised by the author. Kanno Minister said that in the present experiment, the amount of carbon nanotubes put down to the previous experiments 1 / 10, 1 / 100, 1 / 1000. Although the results can not open, but in all the experiments, the mice appeared mesothelioma.

German fuel cell R & D breakthrough film production commercial battery at high temperature

Germany's BASF (BASF) recently announced that it has in the United States, New Jersey Somerset (Somerset, New Jersey) the formal establishment of fuel cell manufacturing equipment to promote energy development in the field of management leadership.

The production of modern equipment and automation using advanced technology, manufacturing, fuel cell's core - that is, high temperature membrane electrode assembly (MEA). Each unit in the MEA, hydrogen and air with the water reaction to produce electricity and heat. The innovative, patented by BASF products Celtec brand on the market, it helps to promote the accelerated development of fuel cell industry to address the increasingly serious current and future energy supply situation.

BASF developed the new type of MEA with the world's first commercial high-temperature membrane fuel cell, its temperature can reach between 120 鈩?-180 鈩? it is the system opened a new vision integrators. This innovative product has no Jiashi in the case of the unique ability to run; have a more simple system; and hydrogen gas and impurities in the air has a greater tolerance. Thus compared to other polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cell technology, has the great advantage.

Celtec high-temperature membrane electrode assemblies (MEAs) can be widely applied in many fields. For example, the efficiency of an unprecedented supply of private residential units to provide electricity and heating and hot water; or for the protection of power backup systems.

Conventional low temperature fuel cell system can not exceed the maximum operating temperature of 80 鈩? and the need for a large number of auxiliary units, complex control systems and hydration systems, and a hydrogen purification unit of the reformer. And equipped with high-temperature membrane electrode assemblies BASF Fuel Cell Hydrogen impurities in resistance may be air-cooled and requires no water for hydration. And therefore also no air humidifier, pumps, tanks, valves and cleaning systems.

BASF executive board member and executive director of Ye Boshi study, said the development of high-temperature membrane electrode assemblies in fuel cells has made a breakthrough in the field. He said: "The establishment of the new world-class equipment the aim to meet current and future growing customer demand. With our partners in alternative energy development system closely, BASF's high-temperature membrane electrode assembly products in the future will be strengthened and improved, will make energy more affordable and fuel cells are widely used.

Fuel cell electric bicycle

Fuel cell electric bicycle

January 5 reports: Along with the "Water and Sustainable Development" as the theme of the 2008 World Expo closing of Spain, the Chinese fuel cell products in the international arena, the successful debut also drew the curtain.

Impression in people's past, the fuel cell is more of a veiled high-tech products, very green, very advanced, but still far from practical. A company called climbing the emergence of hydrogen energy industry to change this situation. Has now developed a series of fuel cell products, and has applied to the tour buses, bicycles, portable power and other occasions.

Bottlenecks due to technical restrictions, the domestic fuel cell in the past mostly as a demonstration purpose. Even if only as an occasional sample sales, and not a batch. The climbing equipment, the fuel cell industry, 21 electric bicycle export to Spain. Fuel cells and fuel cell products, though the sample is only one word, but the meaning is very different. As the product not only satisfied with the work to stabilize, and must have the durability, practicality, cost, appearance and other aspects as well as considerations. In addition for different markets, the relevant certification was necessary.

The export volume fuel cell products is another important significance lies in its purely domestic! This not only refers to the bicycle body also includes a key raw material in fuel cells: catalyst, membrane, carbon paper and the localization of bipolar plates. In which the catalyst and membrane by climbing industry independent research and development and production. Long been neglected domestic raw materials in the practical proof of its outstanding performance in par with international similar products. At the same time the localization of key materials, so often been criticized for the cost of fuel cells can be effectively controlled. Since most of the past, the key raw material to be imported, which makes the cost of the fuel cell control was clutched in the hands of foreign companies, the stakes just look at China's IT industry will be able to get some idea. As foreign enterprises to master the most upstream CPU technology, most IT enterprises has become an overseas Chinese enterprises assembly plant and the client, the price level determined entirely by the upstream firm.

Because these products excellent performance in Spain, climbing industry, the company's Spanish and Italian partner is actively planning for vehicles driven on public roads in the matter, in 2009 there will be more Chinese-made fuel cell products in Europe.

Complaints from the public: the purchase of electric vehicle battery problem more

In accordance with the relevant provisions of the date of commencement of three packs of battery electric vehicles should be purchased from the date of invoice

Electric vehicles with its moderate prices and lightweight, gaining more and more consumers. With the gradual increase of electric vehicles, the electric cars also on the rise of consumer disputes. Last week, in the city center received 12,315 complaints and reports of complaints, promises electric car batteries reach the mileage and battery three packs of hot issues such as complaints.

October 22, east of Wang reflect March of this year, she bought a new electric car, was introduced this electric car business is not only beautiful, but powerful lasting, and committed on a single charge can travel 60 km. Wang found that car was manual also states that a charge may be added the line 60 kilometers, can actually run only 30 kilometers. She found the business, requires a new business to replace the battery yourself, but businessmen say, the electric car is sold in March, but production date marked on the battery in the past year, calculated in accordance with the battery manufacture date, Ms. Wang has been the battery Warranty period, so the merchant refused to give her a new battery.

October 24, Shahe Lee reflected, she bought an electric car, the battery in warranty period repair 2 times, the last time to repair up to two months, again in a few days when the battery can not charge problems in need of repair, the merchant told her that electric vehicles have been the three packs of batteries, if you want to pay maintenance needs.

To this end, the city center to remind the 12,315 complaints and reports that some businesses to battery production date as of the date of commencement of three packs of batteries to shorten the battery's actual period of three packs, three packs of obligations to reduce its commitment of time. In accordance with "part of the replacement of returned goods repair liability" provisions of Article VIII of the "Three Guarantees valid from the date of invoice" date of commencement of three packs of battery electric vehicles should be purchased from the invoice date. In addition, some businesses for the three packs of batteries are often not charged the battery of the repair time, and in accordance with the provisions of three bags, three bags of time shall be deducted by businesses repair and spare parts for repairs take time. Consumers can calculate their own extended the deadline after the three packs. Maintenance requirements of each business consumers fill out and keep maintenance records, and obtain formal invoice when in the car, so in the event of disputes in a timely manner after three packs of rights.

Lithium Battery and Hybrid cars

Lithium Battery and Hybrid cars

The New York Mercantile Exchange, August crude oil futures prices for delivery in July 3 145 U.S. dollars a barrel, the highest recorded. In this week, OPEC weekly average oil prices to new highs. In fact, for some time, high oil prices and the resulting series of political and economic and social issues deeply hurt the car manufacturer. In the United States, the three auto makers have cut production of large pickup trucks, SUV, increase energy-saving small cars or crossovers. However, changing the structure of existing products, while car manufacturers have already "obvious": before you have to master the technology of alternative energy vehicles.

"Battery is the core issue." General Motors R & D lab materials laboratory director Mark? Sheet Mubarak said. Have been successful experiences with a certain market hybrid car, the battery technology in deciding the fate of the car key. It is understood that currently includes the Toyota Prius (configuration parameters Gallery) models, including hybrid vehicles use nickel-metal hydride batteries. And the battery technology itself has limitations. Remove the price factors, on the one hand, the decision by the material limits the size of storage capacity, lack of capacity Ni-MH battery life, on the other hand, it can not be extrapolated charging.

Li-ion battery is a high voltage, charge and discharge, long life, fast charging, self-discharge rate, wide operating temperature range, etc., have become the most cars and parts enterprises and the main direction of choice. Data show that, compared to nickel-metal hydride batteries, hybrid electric vehicles using lithium batteries can make the weight decreased by 40% to 50% and the volume reduced by 20% to 30%, energy efficiency has improved to some extent. Optimistic forecast said that in the near future, the vehicle will decrease the cost of lithium batteries to nickel-metal hydride battery 2 / 3.

Chinese stainless steel market on October 9 Nickel-based product pricing plunge

Chinese stainless steel market on October 9 run remains in the doldrums, the market traded good, pessimistic atmosphere filled the air, nickel stainless steel products fell sharply quotes, 200 series, 400 series also showed downward trend.

London Metal Exchange LME nickel 9 October opened at 13,800 U.S. dollars / ton, closing at 13,200 U.S. dollars / ton, 228 tons less inventory, total inventory is 55,032 tons. Shanghai No. 1 electrolytic nickel market on October 9 prices continue to decline, in the 113,000 to 117,000 yuan / ton, the average price of 115,000 yuan / ton, down 7,750 yuan / ton; 1 reported that 115,000 to 117,000 Jinchuan Nickel yuan / ton, the average price of 116,000 yuan / ton, down 7,750 yuan / ton. October 9 nickel price continued to fall, and the amplitude is relatively large, the spread of market pessimism, the overall trend showed sluggish operation. Futures market and the whole face of the recent financial market prices, the central bank, exchange, etc. have "Sword", or cut, or forced to lighten up, or raising margin and so on, in order to stabilize markets and resolve risks. Can be stabilized to some extent market interest rates, commodity prices have weakened in the short term decline in the likelihood. However, if there is no follow-up to the introduction of the economic rescue plan, I do not rule out possible further decline in commodity markets.

Chinese stainless steel market on October 9 extending over the last few trading days of the downward trend, and the decrease in the expansion. Market pessimism filled the air, although the decline in nickel prices has narrowed the previous session, but the 9th London nickel and both the domestic spot price of nickel fell sharply, the stainless steel market under great pressure, especially nickel stainless steel, the more resources, demand poor circumstances, the offer is substantially reduced, Wuxi, Foshan, 300 series stainless steel offer the market fell sharply, part of the specification much more than the previous trading day decline, 304,309 S, 310S spared, sales of 304 products fell 1,000 to 1,700 yuan / ton. A huge sell-off spot market, traders generally expect to sell low-cost, mitigate the latter may again bring down the economic losses. Wuxi Steel 4 mm 304/NO.1 mainstream market transaction prices in the 21,500 yuan / ton, down 1,000 yuan / ton; Foshan 304/2B TISCO 2 mm market transaction price in the mainstream of 22,900 yuan / ton, down 1,000 yuan / ton. 200 lines, the product pricing in the falling nickel, stainless steel pressure to crack down on market downturn, the traders are not optimistic about the market, Foshan market transaction price of 200, Department of confusion again, some traders offer lower. Department of respect across the board 400 is lowered turnover remains at low, decline more obvious, but the rate of decline is not too much. Wuxi market down 430 base price of cold roll, big offer concentrated in the 11,400 yuan / ton, medium and small household purchase is concentrated in the 11,200 yuan / ton to 11,400 yuan / ton, Foshan market, the overall trend of 400 lines down across the board decline in the basic 100 yuan / ton. 11,200 compared to pre-yuan / ton to 11,600 yuan / ton, taking into account the sharp decline in nickel-based stainless steel, or will make further converting 400 series, 400 series outlook is worrisome.

Silver Zinc laptop batteries

Silver Zinc laptop batteries

ZPower in a few years ago that people will be able to sell silver-zinc batteries, recently, ZPower company said, and the industry first-line notebook manufacturers have signed a cooperation next year, they can see the silver-zinc battery notebook. ZPower company CEO Dr. Ross E. Dueber will also be present, held recently in Nice, France, Batteries 2008 Conference, will introduce the performance of silver-zinc batteries, environmental and safety advantages.

Compared with lithium-ion batteries, silver-zinc battery life and safety has great advantages. The same capacity, the use of silver-zinc battery notebook battery life can be increased by 40%, if a laptop equipped with a lithium-iron battery can run 2 hours, then the same capacity silver-zinc battery life can be 3 hours. The use of one year period, silver-zinc battery life will not be degraded, while the lithium-ion battery life will reduce about 30%. After one year, silver-zinc battery life degradation is consistent with the lithium-ion batteries.

On the other hand, silver-zinc battery is within the basic framework of the composite polymer zinc anode and silver cathode composition, and also contains water, so the fire does not occur. The silver-zinc batteries are not included within the lithium-ion, all do not need to prevent overheating of the thermal management circuit.

In the green environmental protection, ZPower said, 95% of the components can be recycled, and can also be used to make new batteries, the quality of recycled parts will not be any discounts.

ZPower companies want to replace silver-zinc battery lithium-ion battery, but the current problem is the industry of the silver-zinc batteries also holding off, because the lithium-ion batteries it is also good, although the lithium-ion battery caught fire after the incident, but This did not prevent the industry is to continue to use lithium-ion batteries. In addition, the price of silver-zinc battery, a factor that hinder its development, in order to do the price is very low, on the requirements for production and technical progress, the current silver-zinc battery has not been completed to achieve.

ZPower Which company did not disclose the notebook manufacturers will use silver-zinc battery, may have to wait until next year we will know.

Panasonic wants to take over Sanyo

Panasonic wants to take over Sanyo

The goal is clear: Panasonic will be the second largest electronics company in the world. What set the company for it on the table must be, is not known to run the negotiations with the takeover candidates but Sanyo.

The boards of directors of both companies agreed to open talks with the goal of a capital and business alliance that makes Sanyo Electric to a subsidiary of Panasonic. Panasonic striving for a majority stake, as the presidents of both companies announcing today. This arises in terms of sales after General Electric (GE) from the USA's second largest electronics company in the world. In Japan, Panasonic will have overtaken the previous number one Hitachi.

Sanyo is the world's largest manufacturer of lithium-ion batteries for personal computers and mobile phones, as well as strong in solar cells. Through an acquisition, Panasonic would secure a significant market share for rechargeable batteries and position itself at the same time in the fast-growing market for solar cells. This Panasonic would be a significant competitor for German solar manufacturers such as Q-Cells. It would be the first full merger between two major Japanese electronics companies.

In a joint statement on the planned alliance, it was said that the possible fields of cooperation of mutual technological assistance are one of rechargeable batteries. Panasonic's global distribution network could also be used to Sanyo to expand solar energy and business. Sanyo's business, according to media independence will be preserved in the alliance.

Towards the end of the year they would inform on the progress of work on a capital and business alliance, or earlier if necessary, shared with the two Osaka-based company. Panasonic will soon lead negotiations with Sanyo's three largest shareholders on a sale of preferred stock held at Sanyo. These are the two Japanese financial houses Sumitomo Mitsui Banking and Daiwa Securities SMBC Co. Group and the U.S. financial group Goldman Sachs They invested 2006 300 billion yen (2.4 billion euros) in Sanyo and both received preference shares with which they currently hold some 70 percent of Sanyo.

Panasonic and Sanyo together expect for the current fiscal year sales of about 11.2 trillion yen, more than the 10.9 trillion yen of the previous industry leader in Japan, Hitachi. Sanyo was regarded for years as concern for the Japanese electronics industry.

This contributed in addition to the earnings weakness accounting manipulation and management deficiencies. Under the new Group President Seiichiro Sano Sanyo had in the past fiscal year 2007/2008, finally managed a turnaround in earnings.

With fire on the Torah

With fire on the Torah

Pillaging of stores, attacks on women and burglaries in private homes in parts of Israel to ensure fear and uncertainty. Behind the attacks are self-appointed guardians of public morals from the ranks of strictly Orthodox Jews.

The aim of the fanatics is to any address, in their eyes unchaste behavior. Even if the police according to their own data do not run out of organized attacks, says "the Justice Department already" Sittsamkeitspatrouillen.

"It started six months ago. About 15 men came into the shop and screamed <This business Seelen> burns. They threw the goods on the floor and "threatened customers, says Aaron Gold, who works in an electronics store in Jerusalem. One Friday night, just before the start of the Sabbath, "she broke in through a window, scattered gasoline and ignited it," he says.

Since then, a large sign hanging behind the cash register: "All products in this store are under rabbinical supervision. After bidding the rabbis here MP4Player not be sold. "For MP4Player could be used to download pornography from the Internet, the fear of some strenglaugier Orthodox. "These breaches of ethics and morality are threatening our community. When does it need fire to stop them, then it "fire," says the 38-year-old Elchanan Blau.

Shops that sell in the opinion of conservative fanatics provocative clothing were trashed and sprayed the products with bleach. Recently men broke into the apartment one of a 31-year-old Jerusalemerin, beat them and threatened them with death. The woman had left the ultra-Orthodox wing after her divorce, but refused to leave their ancestral home in a predominantly inhabited by Orthodox Jewish neighborhood. According to the indictment, the attackers were given for the attack, a fee equivalent to 1600.

In the town of Beit Shemesh near Jerusalem, in which the attacks were particularly violent, young women have been several times attacked with pepper spray or stones because they were traveling in male company, or because she wore a red blouse. Red Tops are considered taboo - the color excites attention, so the reasoning.

In Beit Shemesh, many walls are sprayed with signs that ask women to dress themselves appropriately. Appropriate means in this case covers the neck, long-sleeved blouses and long skirts. "The eyes and ears are everywhere, similar to what one hears from countries like Iran," says the Israeli-American novelist Naomi Ragen.

Many strictly Orthodox Jews are alarmed about the violence. Nevertheless, the rabbis were not against the violent "guardians of public morals." Often, they even enjoy their connivance, as saying members of the Orthodox community.

The violence of recent months has intensified the already existing gap between the 600,000 orthodox Jews and the secular majority, dominated the country even further. Although numerically in the minority, have called Haredim a relatively great influence in society.

Swedish sun B

The fabric top is well insulated against the cold and ambient noise. Pushing a button it can be in a little over 20 seconds to open or close completely automatically. This is also at low speed to 30 km / h. The roof is largely sealed - in the car wash, it was only on the A-pillar a few drops of water on the inside. The rear window is glass, and consequently also heated.

In the open drive-round visibility is of course very well. If the roof is closed, the summary remains then only to the front really well - even the not very uncommon for a convertible. The substance-C-pillar is so wide that you can see quickly, especially when turning times a cyclist. And even when parking you need a good feel for the dimensions of his Saab - one suspects more where it begins and ends than it actually sees. The optional parking sensors are useful so spent. The security standard is - as it is for a Swedish car is - even at high Convertible: In terms of occupant protection in the EuroNCAP has cleared it for promptly crash five out of five stars.

A strength of the current Saab 9-3 is without doubt the 1.9-liter TTID diesel under the hood. Two series-connected turbos ensure correct performance. The reading is already impressive on paper: 132 kW/180PS and 400Nm of torque allow us to accelerate from 0 to 100 km / h in 9.1 seconds and a top speed of 220 km / h.

min, in practice, and subjective impression is even better: Starting at 1400 rpm, the Saab is going strong and exerts its power evenly throughout the rev band. Even reaching 180 km / h it takes more gas to tire at no. In the motor cultivated and quiet - only when cold, take him a while acoustically aware true than diesel.

The surcharge six-speed automatic in our test car worked accurately and well coordinated with the twin-turbo diesel together - no audible dissonance, no switching holes. The consumption is officially good with 6.4 liters of diesel for a car of this class in order. And in everyday life you will come at half defensive driving barely above 7.0 liters fuel consumption per 100 km. Who the fun potential to offer him the motor and the circuit as an option, but every now and then exploit that is easily hunt sometimes even ten liters of diesel per 100 km through the atomizer.

In terms of (sports) is one gear even at such pace researchers are concentrating on the safe side - because the electronics intervene relatively early on de-escalating. The suspension is sporty tight, without refusing comfort. The Saab is like a skid on the road, only occasionally too rough bumps on to the passengers. Then it quickly becomes clear: the rigidity of the body is very good - even on bad roads open and not even shake the side mirror.

The equipment, the Saab Aero mitliefert is standard for this segment is quite lush - in view of the base price of just over 40,000 but also appropriate.

Two-zone climate control and bi-xenon lights, fog lamps and alloy wheels, sports suspension and cruise control are among the Aero to establish. 6-speed automatic (2200), light curve (1350), rear parking sensors (430) or Navi (as of 2730 euro) but also in extra Saab.

Jobs engine fails

Jobs engine fails

So now it: Apple CEO Steve Jobs health problems are more severe than previously known. The 53-year-old has let himself sick leave by the end of June. What exactly is suffering job, he would not betray.

At the beginning of January, he said to an easily treated by hormone disruption. "Last week, I learned that my health problems but are more complex than originally thought," let it be known now, the prominent head of Apple's cooperation and the public in an e-mail.

Jobs led in the short message are two reasons for its decision. First, he wanted to concentrate on his health, on the other hand he wants to distract anyone from work at Apple. His duties takes as long as the person responsible for the ongoing business Tim Cook.

This release is another chapter in the conflict over Steve Jobs health. Hardly a patient record is currently available for analysts and investors more interesting than that of the Apple boss. For more than a year ago, when Jobs emaciated one of his famous product presentations, held grown up now, the rumors of a serious illness. The question of whether the cancer has broken out again or not, employed a public stock exchange and at times more than the Apple products. These all have in mind the job four years ago had to be treated for pancreatic cancer.

Apple's shares fell post-trade in a first reaction by more than ten percent. Jobs is like no other U.S. managers as a motor and guarantor of the success of his group. Apple's triumph in recent years with products like the iPod music player and iPhone mobile attributed to a large job.

Only in the last week challenged Jobs was in an open letter rumors of serious health problems. His obvious weight loss in recent months, going back to a hormonal disorder, which could be treated relatively easily, the Apple co-founder said at the time.

The constantly emerging speculation about Jobs' health had impacted the price of Apple shares in recent months repeatedly strong. It also triggered a discussion of whether Apple's shareholders adequately informed about the situation. Last week, already Vice President Phil Schiller represented to the great disappointment of many Apple fans the chief executive at the show Macworld Expo in San Francisco and had thus a shift in Apple strategy initiated.
