Apple courts The Fancy CEO: Pinterest challenge imminent

When you pick up a next-generation iPhone this Autumn, you may very well be working with a brand new integrated system for online sales of all things fancy - and not just digital media. It's been tipped to Business Insider writer Owen Thomas that Apple's meeting between their own CEO Tim Cook and startup The Fancy CEO Joe Einhorn earlier this year started something beautiful between the two companies. Now we're to understand that The Fancy is at a point in its development - 20 employees strong, earning $10,000 USD a day in sales from products promoted on their network - that Apple will be prepared to pick them up. Acquire them, in other words.
