#Apple's presentation today was similar to some of the ones #SteveJobs did before he left, he chaired and his senior team did their parts.
#Apple has always been good with lasting designs. Current #MacPro case, has been around since 2003! Still one of the best looking desktop.
#Apple is famous for product designs, but its mastery in #SCM is underrated. #iPhone4S can be much more profitable with unchanged design.
The disappointment should be that #Facebook didn't make an announcement with new #iPhone4S. Are they really going to compete with #Apple?
#Apple is down by about 5% after #iPhone4S announcement. It's nice that a good product comes at a discount. Smart investors will buy now!
All #smartphones look similar now-a-days. #iPhone hasn't changed form factor much since day one. Just better components and software inside.
Annual form factor changes is not how #Apple kept winning in the #smartphone market. Longer product lifecycles help to build the #ecosystem.
I can understand why the market reacts not so positively to the #iPhone4S news. That's what exactly happened with #iPhone3GS.
#iPhone5 would have been nice, but #iPhone4S is enough to keep winning.
#Apple hooking up with #WolframAlpha is a great move. Will keep #Google working hard. #Android can't be partnering with a search competitor.
Doing a great presentation takes a lot of deliberate practice. Don't assume any top CEO can just walk up to the stage with no preparation.
Everyone compares #TimCook to #SteveJobs, yes, he has a lot to live up to. But what's if being second to Jobs is already best of industry?
When #SteveJobs announced iPhone in 2007, he made a bold claim that their technology is 5 years ahead. Look, nearly 2012 and #iPhone5. :)
#iPhone5 will be the market leader, but #iPhone4S will be the true #Android killer.
Using #A5 in #iPhone4S seems to put it as a top end phone, but that's not the reason, it gets all new devices on same CPU. #A4 is old.
My guess is, #iPhone4S is the low end replacement of iPhone 4 GSM/CDMA, it will have world mode to simplify inventory.
#Kindle Fire, half the price of cheapest iPad 2, but you get less than half of hardware. A good top end Kindle, but not an #iPad killer.
#HP should reconsider their strategy on #webOS and #TouchPad. After the sale, it is probably the second most popular tablet on the market!
I think Meg will be great for #HP. She was good to setup a giant for selling mostly cheap stuff that wasn't hers. Now change the PC market!
The new #AndroidMarket is much better now. More like #AppStore and can easily find apps. But worrying for #developers, everything is free!
First #Symbian, now #webOS, we are just down to 4 now. When will #Blackberry yield?
#Samsung, #LG, #HTC and other licensees should gang up and setup a new OS, based on Android, just without #Google's apps and control.
$15 licensing fees for every #Android device is cheap! #Google didn't spend decades of R&D to build up own set of mobile & OS technologies.
People talk about #Crowdsourcing all the time, but rarely or never do it. Just try #Smartsheet now! http://www.smartsheet.com?u=EV2068200
#Microsoft might end up making more money from #Android than #Google! Google should really learn to use the patent system properly!
Using #TweetDeck for #chrome, remembering how #webapps were once a joke, maybe #Google can quietly win with Chrome Web Store one day.
@Nokia just released their first #MeeGo smartphone, no wonder why their shares are down so much! http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-13863741
I use @Skype a lot. But can't say that it will be the clear winner. It is too slow in coming up with new features. Try Viber and whatsapp.
Higher order information and knowledge are too often ignored. Somehow we are often stuck with just first order data.
@Friendster not fighting with @Facebook may be a smart thing, but fighting with @myspace to become the first one out isn't.
