#2> The Manhattan district attorney, Cyrus R. Vance Jr., foreground, and New York City’s police commissioner, William J. Bratton, behind him, say they have about 175 iPhones they have been unable to unlock.

#3Clearly this is an agenda.
I still don't understand why Apple needs to save the FBI from it's own incompetence in asking the government office that managed the iPhone to reset the password.
It seems to me that unless tech companies come together to defend Apple, we may see (unregulated and unaccountable) government become very very part of all facets of computing.

#8At least now all doubt is formally removed that they want to use the precedent set in the SB case for more mundane requests. Hopefully this should make Apples' PR fight easier.

Only on iOS <= 8.1. Is there anything published that works since 8.1.1?

Depends a lot on the version of the phone and the state that they found them in, no?
