Dell and Target Dropping iPod
In a followup to their previous report, ThinkSecret reports that both Dell and Target are dropping the iPod:
It is not known exactly what objections Target and Dell had to the contract, but sources confirm the contract was instrumental in the decision of both companies to abandon, for now, the sale of the iPod. It is not known if either company will settle its contractual differences with Apple and start selling the product again, but based on Target's decision to clear out all remaining stock of iPods, it's thought the possibility of such a move is remote.
The article describes many other resellers who are also currently deauthorized.
