What a douchebag.
Android has been in the works long before Jobs unveiled the iOS. |

This crap is the main reason I really hate Apple..even though I have an iPhone.
I think they have made some good products, no doubt their marketing is great, but they dont invent shit. They are good packagers of technology. and then they get compared to MS all the time, guess what...MS has both a consumer brand and a business brand. The technology advancements MS makes in the business space are huge. Apple doesnt have ANYTHING there.

I abhor itunes & have an android phone, but in this particular case Jobs is right though... he did get ripped off... I just use android cause I hate the iphone more & windows phone is just too far from anything...
sigh..

I seem to recall that you'd put an apple to the mouth of a roasted sucking pig, for that it softens the grimace...

Although on second thought, I must refuse to equate a dead to that of a sucking pig, for one is delectable and another despicable.

That was mostly Steve Jobs' personal arrogance manifesting itself in company decisions. Maybe with a new CEO that doesn't have an ego the size of a planet, apple can get a little more down to earth. Then again, arrogant elitism seems to being the main selling point of many apple products, especially the macbook

That left side of that pic covers something like 15 years of cell tech, Including a star-tac and an n-gage gaming handheld (not really a phone), the right side only covers the last 4-5 years, and only includes touchscreens which all have, by necessity, roughly the same shape.
Theres only so much you can do with a 3.5 inch screen and 4 buttons. If anything, all the modern phones look like palm pilots |

The Soldier,
As long as any website i goto uses flash the iPad sucks cock. I will never, ever own one until it does. I'll give $2000 for a android tablet that supports flash, before buying an iPad that doesnt Steve Jobs was a freaking idiot not to ensure the iPad ran flash. |

and you know what, Steve Jobs didnt even come up with the idea for an iPhone or an iPad
the first iAnything was seen on the debut episode of StarTrek the Next Generation back in 1987 as one was handed to Captain Picard. They continued to use trekpads thru Deep Space Nine and Voyager... and long, long after they were off the air Steve Jobs claims to have come up with the iPad so.. not only did he not invent, create or even think of an iPad originally he also didnt put flash on it. omg.. grrr... such a loser |

Wish there was someway to add the Angrybirds theme to that picture. FYI. PADD or Personal Access Display Device, which had limited internal storage (for the 24th Century), but acted more like a cloud device directly connected to the ships super (uber) central computer; in other words a knock on iCloud. In Star Trek Enterprise which takes place 200 years before this they have them aswell and was also pre-iPad. If Apple could patent the wheel and charge every one for it, they would.

Any more last breaths to hold off the anti-trust lawsuit announced today that charges Apple with price collusion?

Also, you forgot a couple made a year before the iPhone, like this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xtwPlEbwoxI (sry, video is of pretty bad quality due to how old it is )Notice: 1) the shape 2) screen 3) style of the trim 4) lack of buttons Apple popularizes stuff*, but doesn't often invent anything new. * luckily for Apple, most electronics companies don't know how to polish a device for consumer usability. Ka-ching! for Apple, and almost nothing for the actual innovators.
