Morning Xtra: Apple Taking on Paypal?, 'G.I. Joe' Loves Middle America
Highlights from this morning's other big tech headlines....
- Rumors on Wall Street suggest that Apple is eyeing an iTunes-based "Paypal Killer." Apple's App Store takes 30-percent of the profit from app-related sales, though, so those figures would have to decrease drastically for any effective competition. [From: BusinessInsider.com]
- Paramount has declined the traditional New York and L.A. release for 'G.I. Joe: Rise of the Cobra,' hoping to aim straight at the heartland without critical interference. Read: Plot will be shaky, characters like stick figures, but the action should be totally awesome. [From: TheAwl]
- Hola, Señor Manzana! Yesterday, Apple opened up its iTunes store in Mexico City, Mexico, featuring a plethora of local and international tunes. [From: Apple]
- Samsung knows there is nothing better than data porn (the practice of storing info in exessive, extreme, and enticing ways), which may be why it released the first 64-gigabyte (GB) flash card for those of you that want to document everything your cat does. [From: Toshiba, via OhGizmo]

- Despite only being the fifth largest handset manufacturer, Apple has claimed over 32-percent of profits within the smartphone market.
