 I think this certainly qualifies as "the pot calling the kettle black"... Apple is pushing for manufacturers of iPod accessories to pay a royalty if they want to put that coveted "Made for iPod" logo on their products. In secret, some manufacturers are complaining that the price is too high.
The market for iPod acessories is estimated to be hundreds of millions of dollars a year. Apple refused to comment on what they would do if companies refused to play along. I wonder if they'll find some 12-year-old Girl Scouts or some Grandmothers to sue?
Nahhh... probably just a few rich guys in fancy suits.
