To consumers it just seemed stupid and silly, rather than honorable, for American Apparel to pay employees that much and then presumably pass those costs on to them.
We'd been hearing rumors that the Motorola Sholes on Verizon wouldn't be running MOTOBLUR because it's to be a "Google Experience" device, and while that seemedsilly at first, it certainly looks like the device Verizon CEO Lowell McAdam was waving around this morning was running stock Android.
