If you didn’t know, Google’s CEO Eric Schmidt has been a member of Apple’s Board of Directors for some time now. However, now that Google is developing their own operating system to compete with Apple’s OS X the position has apparantly caused enough conflict for Mr. Schmidt to resign from the board.
Below is Steve Jobs’ comment on Schmidt’s departure:
Eric has been an excellent Board member for Apple, investing his valuable time, talent, passion and wisdom to help make Apple successful. Unfortunately, as Google enters more of Apple’s core businesses, with Android and now Chrome OS, Eric’s effectiveness as an Apple Board member will be significantly diminished, since he will have to recuse himself from even larger portions of our meetings due to potential conflicts of interest. Therefore, we have mutually decided that now is the right time for Eric to resign his position on Apple’s Board.

What kind of phone would you expect Eric Schmidt, CEO of Google, to use? An Android powered phone, right? Or at least an iPhone given the companie’s close alliances. Well, if you guessed either of those, you’re wrong
As you can see from the above picture, Mr. Schmidt would much rather opt for a BlackBerry rather than an Android powered handset or even an iPhone.
But wait, at least he has a Google sticker on the back so he isn’t doing all wrong.
