How do you forecast which innovation will be purely software or would need hardware to support it?
Many sensors may not be small enough to be fitted in AppleWatch.
In any case, AppleWatch is just a smart watch as a stand alone device. It needs to be linked to IPhone to be of real use. Any hardware added to AppleWatch need to be considered as hardware addition to iPhone+AppleWatch system! even if no addition is done to IPhone.
The addition of new facilities will continue to need up gradation of both A and M series processors in iPhone and S series processor in AppleWatch. These annual up gradations are enough to keep a team of hardware guys very very busy.

But you have talked about the iPhone, no innovation. The examples you gave are software!
But again, you wanted iPhone innovation, and I am yet to hear it. iPhone not software.

On iPhone, the main emphasis seems to be AppleWatch.Much of medical diagnosis which is possible with non invasive testing should come in next couple of years.Apart from heart beat, oxygen saturation etc. blood glucose, lipid profile and even detection of various infections should be possible. In fact, complete health monitoring was forecasted in Star Trek TV serials in 70s.Since the group is for the iPad, there should be class room package where the children need to carry only iPad. No books or paper is required. The tests could be tailor made for each student so as to identify his weaknesses, assignments could be submitted by uploading the same to the teacher, through wifi when in the class, teacher could talk to individual student through face time like conversation in the class without disturbing the others so that limited individual coaching is done, relevant pages/chapters could be flashed on to the students without attracting copyright violations, etc.Healthcare, Education and Employment should be the target area rather than entertainment ( about songs, TV shows and movies etc.) about which enough has already been done and will continue to be done(by the profit driven industry).Best

PKS, tell me what innovations Apple can add
Sent from my iPhone 5S I agree it doesn't end, but as technology evolves it lessens, it refines. A nuclear powered car will last thousands of years but there is a downside.
Sent from my iPhone 5S How about Google car?Driverless cars will be another game changer.Later, Thorium based cars are likely to come.The initial 5 gram of Thorium will fuel your car for rest of its life ( 10 years or 300,000 miles, which ever is earlier).Please do not forget that innovation never ends.It is not a monopoly of a person, company or nation.
BestPKSI dont know much about Tesla.. Are they within ballpark of a gas powered car?Electric Hybrids are already commonThey race Formula One all electricThe last time I took any interest in electric cars, they cost a low more to buy, they cost to charge, they used far more of a carbon footprint, when the batteries were done woth that cost a mint to replace.Its a great thing, but its not yet here. When it is, all cars will be electricFrom: "Pete petefromflorida@gmail.com [iPad]" <iPad@yahoogroups.com>

Tesla is a game changer and instead of Steve Jobs we now have Elon Musk.
PeteThe Law of Diminishing ReturnsTake a 1965 sedan car. Lots of innovation is possible.Take a 2015 sedan car, what can you innovate? Its all there, been done. Somethings will turn up, but when a product is mature, what can you innovate?Give me some examples of innovation that Apple can do. Do not include improving past innovations.Yes, Jim S may often defend Apple, but I feel your downgrading of Apple has no basis. Your expecting completely new ideas regularly, that cannot happen to a mature product, no matter who makes itFrom: "Pabitra Saha pksaha000@yahoo.co.uk [iPad]" <iPad@yahoogroups.com>

I do not understand if Apple has been able to or will be able to maintain the innovator status in the years to come but Jim will be always defending Apple.

PKSThere is no one preventing *you* from having low expectations.It is an excellent plan for getting pleasantly surprised when good products continue to be produced._._,_.___Apple has a turbulent history.But for the fifteen or so years up to Jobs' death, it was an extremely bright history. Jobs enjoyed celebrity status as a kind of white knight riding above and ahead of the herd, as the charismatic and creative head of a fabulously successful technological army. And it wasn't all hype. Some lovely products came out of Cupertino in those days. But when Jobs died, the banner of the Apple army was torn. The army, on its own, under a new leader, began to lose little battles and failed to win any big ones. It began to look as though the magic had been in the leader more than in the army.What this means for Apple's future, I have no idea. But I don't see a coherent growth plan. What, exactly, are they up to? It looks as though they want to become a major player in entertainment, but at the same time remain a consumer-electronics company.I wish they'd stayed focused on personal electronics. I don't like the Beats acquisition. I can identify with a company that keeps trying to push the edge of the envelope with cool tools, but not with an entertainment conglomerate. Sony is a company that wandered into the entertainment swamp and got lost. I hope Apple isn't following in their footsteps.
