  • Steve Jobs criticized Tim Cook for not being a 'product person'

            It was well documented and known that Tim was a logistics guy mainly before taking on his current role. To imply that Tim is some sort of tech visionary or has introduced anything revolutionary (Apple watch was an advanced version of an iPod nano with a wristband he saw) would be a stretch.
            He does what most CEO’s do....he tries to surround himself with people who know what they are doing.
             Apple has stalled unfortunately...lots of evolution but nothing truly visionary. I really hope Apple shows me something I “didn’t know I wanted or needed” until I saw it! THE GOOD OLD DAYS!

    Other than the iPhone there was nothing like that in the Jobs 2.0 era. And something like the iPhone doesn’t come around very often.

  • Jobs biographer slams Apple design and missed TV opportunity

    Why do people put this clown on TV. Just because he wrote some crappy bio of Steve Jobs the CNBC’s of the world think he’s some expert on Apple the company. He’s not.

    Yet Steve Jobs decided to put a non-product guy in charge of the company. How much do we really believe Isaacson‘s story? He can say whatever. Steve isn’t here to refute it.
    Yeah, but it's a good attempt at confirmation bias. Cook doesn't "seem" like a product guy. So, a BS fake story like this is perfect to go viral. It's why so many can't stand the media no matter what their politics are.
    Yep. And someone from 9to5Mac pointed out that he did put a Jobs quote in the book that Cook “wasn’t a product person, per se”. So Isaacson just wants in on the Jony Ive is leaving story. And saying Jobs told him Cook wasn’t a product person is a juicy story that will go viral.

Also Isaacson knows Ive. He knows Ive is not someone who’s going to comment on an a rumor. In fact it’s entirely possible Tim Cook’s e-mail response to Dylan Byers was not sanctioned by Apple PR. The WSJ asked Apple if they wanted to comment on the story and Apple PR said no.

  • Rosenblatt downgrades Apple to 'sell' on middling iPhone sales

    It’s all about the iPhone. NOT. Not one word about services and the ecosystem. Analysts do not know about the strategy called ‘long term investing.”
    Apparently this investor note also said services would be decelerating. Perhaps subscription fatigue is a real thing and people aren’t that eager to sign up for another subscription/streaming service. We haven’t heard much good about Apple’s News service. The last story I saw was publishers complaining that it hasn’t been great so far. Apple certainly isn’t out there touting big subscription figures. A lot of people complaining that the app isn’t great. I don’t think one can just assume Apple is going to be great at services.
