Ok, but the point is the same. IDG asked them to change their booth,
or probably either change it or leave.

And i bet they didn't do this to Be. Be wasn't pushing _integration_
the last time i saw them.

Then again, Gassee used to work for Apple, Be isn't a fully-developed
OS (well, there aren't a whole lot of commercial apps for it), and
most importantly, i don't think Apple (or Steve) considers Be a
threat.
