And all that can be done with very little investment on Apple's part --
get Logitech to design and market the controllers but of course pay
Apple a license fee for using the iOS code, and get all the independent
app developers to create games to take advantage of the controllers, all
sold through the iTunes App Store of course, so Apple gets a percentage
of each sale.

What's the downside, from a corporate point of view?
