Francois, there are probably two quite distinct issues, with two different
legalities.  Probably in the EU, at least in most jurisdictions, Apple will
not be able to enforce the prohibition on installing retail copies of OSX on
third party hardware.  It is interesting they have brought no cases despite
well publicized violations.  

But probably they will be able to continue the quite different policies of
tying the iDevices to the App Store and continuing to control what goes in
the App Store.  This is what underlies the SDK issue.  The situations are
very different, one can't really draw conclusions from one to the other. 
One is a question of the enforceability of a civil contract.  The other is
about whether a given policy breaches competition law and whether the
Commission will take action.  Very different.
