Apple's vice president responsible for sales to the U.S. government, may have left the company, according to Bloomberg.
Ron Police ran the government sales force since 2004. He reportedly left Apple in October, and his LinkedIn profile indicates he is no longer with the company.
Police, who couldn't be reached for comment, helped Apple's iPhone and iPad gain a foothold at government agencies, a market traditionally dominated by technology products from companies such as Microsoft Corp., Dell Inc. and Research In Motion Ltd. To further that effort, Apple is seeking security certification from the National Institute of Standards, the agency that provides technology recommendations to the federal government.
President Obama recently revealed that Steve Jobs gave him an iPad 2 'a bit early' and has been photographed with it on numerous occasions.
