Its taken just a couple of days for the opportunists. Sony Pictures have reportedly acquired the rights to make a movie from the official “approved” Steve Jobs biography which is scheduled to be released later this month. They have signed a deal with the author of the official biography, which will see the author, Walter Isaacson, get $3 million in case the movie is made and $1 million even if the idea is scrapped completely.
