Apple buys motion sensor maker PrimeSense

Apple has purchased PrimeSense, an Israeli firm that specialises in making 3D motion detection technology.

PrimeSense is best known for developing gesture control for Microsoft's Kinect sensor, and has made strides towards bringing the technology to mobile.

Apple's deal is likely to spark speculation about its plans to develop new products such as Apple TV.

PrimeSense confirmed the deal with Apple in a statement to the BBC but said they could not comment further.

Apple did not disclose the financial details of the deal but said it had taken place. Some reports claimed it had paid $360m (£222m).

I won't address you until you recognize that Israel is a Jewish State granting the right of aliyah to a country, a land, which has a Jewish majority.

since i haven't done that...that leaves u with little choice but to "not address me"

perhaps the concept is too difficult to for you (you seem to have trouble with concepts) but if the boycotters and censorship advocates believe they are gaining ground, the other side is that companies and countries are doing just the opposite (commonly referred to as the "flip side) in that they are infact investing in israel

you made a clear demand, that i refused to accept.

1) you can say it was a mistake and that got carried away and i will accept that, freeing u up to call me all kinds of new names (derp was cool, i even had to look it up!)

2) you can stick to your demands, and show some gumption and not reply to my posts (this apparently you have trouble with)
3) or act like a 5 year old and pretend you didn't write it

as far as Barak goes, Shaktimaan did a wonderful job of explaining the ruling to you, far better than i ever could, but all of that is irrelevant to your demand that i never met....
