I wonder if Google just tossed out $10 million to see what would hatch, they certainly can through out tons more later once they actually get a phone working.

On the Apple fund, is that Apples cash or a private equity firms cash? If its Apples then that would raise a few questions about the first round winners and their association with the fund manager, if its the fund managers (private equity firm) then it really raises questions because if it was the former then Apple should be concerned about inside stuff and its the latter then business as usual.
