…….
The White House has released statement from President Obama on the passing of Steve Jobs.
Michelle and I are saddened to learn of the passing of Steve Jobs. Steve was among the greatest of American innovators – brave enough to think differently, bold enough to believe he could change the world, and talented enough to do it.
…….
The world has lost a visionary. And there may be no greater tribute to Steve’s success than the fact that much of the world learned of his passing on a device he invented. Michelle and I send our thoughts and prayers to Steve’s wife Laurene, his family, and all those who loved him.

Steve leaves behind a company that only he could have built, and his spirit will forever be the foundation of Apple.

Yesterday, Apple’s senior vice president of worldwide product marketing Phil Schiller introduced iPhone 4S; the successor to to 2010’s iPhone 4. The reaction was mixed but the negative ones are louder. To paraphrased:
Let’s take a look at what’s good about iPhone 4S:
For the past few years, some pundits were criticizing Apple for adopting the “Detroit model”. To paraphrase:
Here’s a new iPod/iPhone/iPad. It looks different, so you must buy new one. Just like the Detroit industries adding “wings” to the cars.
So, when Apple sticks to a great iPhone 4 design:
What’s this iPhone 4S? It looks like an iPhone 4. We want to see new design.
It is imperative to stop taking the pundits seriously. We should have done so years ago.
Apple has just posted “Let’s talk iPhone.” event video on its site. Podcast version of the video will be made available later through iTunes.
Streaming video requires Safari 4 or 5 on Mac OS X Snow Leopard or Lion, Safari on iOS 3 or later, or QuickTime 7 on Windows.
