  17. Not a catchy feature, this basically means to enjoy this security access control features you must upgrade to an iOS with finger print control features. This obviously pushes up sales for Apple.

    It will soon be available to android devices with finger print scanners.

  19. I can see Obama personally doing the health.gov ad has brought about renewed fervor for brand managers to entice using head honchos in brand management strategies... Just a thought. Would't be surprised if many follow suit in quick succession soon.
