1. Don't launch since you will be swamped by other stories, e.g., Jobs 2. Not really ready, a chronic problem for Android and Samsung, who love to launch betas 3. ... pick your explanation Oh by the way, lets spin it as out of respect for Stev…

So don't try and fix it. It remains very unclear as to exactly the Job's and Board relationship. Job's views carried a lot of weight, but these are strong smart people in their own right. In sense they have also been training for this job and I s…

To avoid serious IP issues and costs, moving from Android to WeBOS is smart. I suspect, Amazon designed their implementation to easily change the underlying OS as Android market falls into chaos with MS, Oracle, and Apple lawsuits, not the mention …

If Apple is using encumbered patents, then simple non-discrimatory fees are straight forward to address. These are usually associated with standards etc., and reflect agreements for the standard to be put in place, e.g., cell phone communications s…

WINTEL going to ANDTEL and WINARM and all the commotion in hardware space, it's a real mudwrestling match.

Aside from litle evidence dividend or share buy back improves stock price in general and the very real tax liabilities this is not self evident in stockholdeers interest. In fact, if stock value is important, best way to improve stock value is not …

I like keeping iDisk. It's very convenient for me.

Apple's long term strategy is not revealed by today's partners or "hires.". My personal guess is that this is a low risk cost, capital investment, to learn what makes sense to insource and outsource. Simple dumb plumbing may be right approach, but …

When iCloud comes out, it sounds like Leopard machines will have a big disconnect when iDisk et goes away. I can live with changes in iWeb, Gallery, etc. changes but I sure would like to retain my current storage options in iDisk on iCloud. iTunes…

Oops, time warp 101. Laps won't replace desktops cost/ performanc willnadvance for both, .... iPads will eventually supersede laptops for 90% of people and when they need big iron, they will use the cloud. Rarely has ANYONE said PCs go away…

Sounds like IBM, will Lenovo buy HP-PC or Dell or Toshiba or better yet Google.

I think Horace Didiu's observation that like mergers these deals rarely work out for any of the players concerned. I doubt they will have much impact on Apple, MS, and certainly Oracle [or MPEG and may Linux regarding license violations by Android …

I wonder if this pushed them in this direction.

MacOS is unlikely to go ARM until bog developers commit or a compatibility mode exists. Photoshop and Office come to mind. Perhaps cloud apps might mitigate this.

Apple's Android competitors are gearing up their copying machines to product Apple's design as soon as it appears. So much for competitive innovation and ergo Apple's focus on challenging the most egregious copy cats.

Apple does not want to commodize it's innovations through copying it's design. If someone wants to innovate and compete e.g., HP, MS, and RIM. Then go got it. If they think commodization is a good model, HP and Dell on PCs great. So my bet is Ap…

Apple does not license it IP as a business for income. It will license to encourage standards valuable to it, e.g., H.264, FaceTime, bonjour, etc. I think Apple will demand big penalty and force HTC Android et al to develop different OS, similar to …

Apple has a finely tuned supply chain process for advanced technology, diversified sources, and strong competitive pricing negotiations with its vendors, including SAMSUNG. While strategic market competition in smart phones as well as in compon…

In other words, its OK to bring a new beast to the table, but WebOS does not have OS9 fall back. This would be like saying iOS in 2007 was like 10.0, and 10.1, it was not. It was fast, smooth, and slick, yeah there new features desired and they ca…
