I've been on a jury for a weeks long trial, and there can be days when it's the same nothing, or nothing you are allowed to hear.

AFAIK Jobs is in the clear. But he needs to have an attorney and a court reporter present, not like Martha Stewart (your favorite) who got caught for perjury when she was interviewed with no attorney (for her) present and no recording.

As Alan Dershowitz wrote in an OpEd in the WSJ, usually a guilty person does the "act" and if caught then hires an attorney. In this case, Stewart hired the attorneys first (the charge of insider trading was later dropped), said she had nothing to hide, and then attended the interview on her own -- I think at that point it's a trick for the government to not record it - and later witnesses for the government testified what she said. She got convicted on that testimony.

Everyone knows that now, so Jobs will have more than one attorney present, if that's allowed. I wouldn't be surprised if it is audio or video recorded. Most court reporters use audio.
