People didn't want the iPod mini they wanted more songs and more battery, except it did sell rather well. 

Actually, it HAD better battery life due to sold state storage.

What it a pricer "slim" phone allowed Apple to use a more advanced battery technology?

When you run out of ideas, you make up a solution for a non-problem and pass it off as the reason to upgrade way more often than necessary.

Tim Cook's obsession with thinness and pretty new colors for existing products is embarrassing. 

Steve Jobs would never, and I mean never, allow Apple's user experience to get so out of control.

I'd submit that Apple knows their customer base better than you do. They've done more research than you have. And that they know their customers like colors. If anything, they've often been chastised for having too few.

And as to Steve, I really, really, really, really, really wish people would stop channeling the ghost of someone they don't know and have never met in an attempt to bolster their own weak arguments. I guess they do that when they run out of ideas.

You remember, do you not, when Steve came back to Apple and induced the iMac? In colors?????????

And then later on introduced dozens upon dozens of iPods... in colors?????????

Or when Apple reintroduced the iMac line? in colors?????????

You can also setup Control Center to be opened with the Action button.

They are going to just stop getting in the way of companies. These kinds of regulation don't benefit the consumer.

Yep, we're much better off when we can be subjected to unnecessary fees and penalties, gouged on price once completion is eliminated, refused insurance claims after paying skyrocketing rates, and on and on.

Unbridled capitalism benefits no one... unless you're the oligarch at the top of the food chain.  

When the DOJ turns a blind eye to their shenanigans it's fine, but when they object it's suddenly "push[ing] a radical agenda".
