Bloomberg reports that a Manhattan District Attorney is challenging recent moves by Apple, Google and other tech companies by suggesting government pass laws that prevent mobile devices from being “sealed off from law enforcement.” In an interview this week, the government official called it “an issue of public safety.” Apple Inc. (AAPL) and Google Inc. (GOOG) should be legally required to give police access to customer data necessary to investigate crimes, New York County’s top prosecutor said… Federal and state governments should consider passing laws that forbid smartphones, tablets and other such devices from being “sealed off from law enforcement,” Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance said today in an interview at a cybersecurity conference in New York....

Nonetheless, I removed the bezel to test its durability; the sucker is strong or at least resistant to torque. The bezel didn’t bend when I tried to give it a purposeful twist. But it did suffer some nicks when I whopped it with a metal ruler. Worried about durability? The crystal is made of Gorilla Glass and recessed a bit beneath the bezel. This should give the screen extra protection if you slam the Mission against a river rock....
Nokia’s Facebook page is bright green, its Twitter feed likewise, though the company’s official website swims against this seemingly odd tide by sticking with blue. Of course, it could all be an environmental-centric publicity stunt of sorts. But you know what else is green aside from grass, leaves and emeralds? Android, exactly. Google’s mobile operating system has always been publicly depicted as a little green robot, so odds are we’ve solved the puzzle....

What those third-party products entail remains unknown.
