yeah its funny, we are left with 2 choices, apple censorship or free speech.

I think Ill still take free speech over apple. They dont HAVE to honor that as a business.
But eventually they will realize noone is paying them to censor things and focus on iphone 5 instead.

As in, "Steve we love your phones, shove your morals elsewhere. You represent noone on that count."

waiting until they get caught then grudgingly "allowing" it is not an "apology".

Damned if they do, damned if they don't.

Graphic novels are fine but most of the fun in Ulysses is the language and I'm afraid that's lost with a comic book edition. It might lay out the story nicely though for those who don't know it yet. But then read the book.

Exactly. Joyce was meticulous, apparantly spending hours on a single sentence. A graphic novel kind of misses the point.

now if that had been the objection there probably would not have been the outcry about it, and it is a valid literary comment and a good point from you. As it is the only objection Steve had about it was it *GASP* was homoerotic so they put big black blocks over the parts they disliked.
