talk about the ambiguity of his letter
Apple CEO Steve Jobs today sent the following email to all Apple employees:
Team,
At my request, the board of directors has granted me a medical leave of absence so I can focus on my health. I will continue as CEO and be involved in major strategic decisions for the company.
I have asked Tim Cook to be responsible for all of Apple's day to day operations. I have great confidence that Tim and the rest of the executive management team will do a terrific job executing the exciting plans we have in place for 2011.
I love Apple so much and hope to be back as soon as I can. In the meantime, my family and I would deeply appreciate respect for our privacy.
Steve
talk about the ambiguity of his letter
talk about what Apple would be without him
think about presentations without the guy
I don't think it would be the same, I think it would be worst
again, one of Apple's strong points
The mini DisplayPort sounds bogus as well. the push is for wireless. Who uses that stuff anyway?
The one thing Apple wants to avoid is file managers. this would require one. unless an app could automatically search for all the file types it can read and only present those. Still think it's unlikely.
A more practical approach would simply be doubling the resolution of the current iPad (1024x768) to 2048x1536 at a 260 DPI.
Citing upstream component makers, Taiwan's DigiTimes reported Thursday that the iPad 2 will feature a resolution of 2048 by 1536, which would be quadruple the total pixels of the iPad.
this is to be going in to a SoC with an A9 based arm processor
The most likely configuration of Apple's next custom chip is reportedly two SGX543 cores to work as one, offering around four times the capability of the previous A4 in graphics and video tasks.
that tells me they are just polishing up a buttonless iPad 2
no movies at the moment
stupidest thing I's heard in long time. Couldn't even describe it as byest. It's absolutely false
Not to forget the battle with the heavy and proprietary Flash that seamed to be heading the right way
guess what, they have voted. And everybody wants to support iOS devices. Now they're just making it harder.
Now that finally we had a winner Google comes along and says: wait, let's forget about the decades it took us to finally pick a standard codec and use this one instead. It's slower than H.264 and more closed than Ogg Theora, but who cares.
Is that not what all of us want to get rid of?
23% increase year over year
has been like that for the last 5 years
