Author and publisher Adam Engst, of TidBITS and Take Control Books, updates his “Apple in the hot seat” discussion. First he recaps Apple’s recent loss in a Federal eBook price-fixing trial, and then comments about the U.S. Department of Justice’s draconian demands for remedies. He also discusses Apple’s last-minute victory before the ITC, where President Obama vetoed a ruling that would have banned the iPhone 4 and some older iPads from being sold.

From The Mac Observer, you’ll hear from co-founder and co-publisher Bryan Chaffin. He’ll also talk about the Apple eBook price-fixing trial, and the DOJ’s demands, along with the veto of the ITC’s import ban. He’ll also cover the ongoing changes and what’s improved as development of iOS 7 continues. And don’t look now, but there may also be a surprise visit from “The Fake Steve Ballmer.”
