Hey is trying a new take on email – but maker complains of 'outrageous' demands after Apple rejects iOS app

They have nothing new here. The only novelty is a poor 'permission' based scheme for separating out senders. Remarkably similar to an emailing scheme, IMO, a far better scheme that I mused about more than 10 years ago. I doubt I was the first to have such ideas either - step forward PGP-enabled email and mailbox rules.

No more Nookie for Blighty as Barnes & Noble pulls out

This wouldn't be the first time I've lost my purchased ebooks with barnes and noble. A similar thing happened back in the early 2000's with the adobe glassbook books. Apparently there was nothing they could do about it then. At least this time there might be a chance to keep your purchases.
