Friends Kingdom: Re: [iPad] Apple may kill off iPad Mini

I think Apple as moved on more once the mourning period was over. Regular Android catchups, screen size increases, opening up iOS, such as many more sharing options. This was needed. Closed off is a good thing, but too closed off is just plain restricted.

OT it will be interesting to see what they do with video, as in TV and Movies. Take it on like music? TV and Movies need to be removed from the archaic monopoly that the less then a handful of media companies have now. Its about those that make the media and watch it, not "manage" it.

Patience implies belief. I don't believe in the current Apple. I'll keep buying iPads and iPhones and iPods and Apple TVs, so long as they keep nourishing the ecosystem and don't drop the commitment to high-quality fit and finish and UI, but I no longer expect Apple to innovate. That's dead.

I remember long ago - the eighties - when Steve W and Steve J were exciting people. Then the Pepsi guy got rid of Steve J, and Apple floundered. Steve J came back, and Apple flourished. Steve J died, and Apple floundered again (except as a money machine, coasting on an image created by Steve J).

Apple's fortunes rose with the founders and fell without them. That's life. Nothing lasts forever.

Time was when Apple was an innovator. Sadly, the company's grown so rich that innovation, apparently, is now too risky.
