I think once you get past 12 months without Jobs then this will be some indication of the future of Apple. As for now, like our country, Apple is living off the investments of the past.
Have read iPad 3 in March or April and iPhone 5 in July or August. Should be two very strong quarters.
Don’t know what the iTV will do or when.
“I think once you get past 12 months without Jobs then this will be some indication of the future of Apple. As for now, like our country, Apple is living off the investments of the past.”
For one thing, Jobs reputedly gave his ideas for several more years worth of innovation before he passed. So, Apple has his input to some extent for what that’s worth.
I think the bigger picture, though, is that Apple’s employees have seen what types of products, and what software approaches, have been successful. If Apple continues to follow the winning formula of the last several years, it will do well. It certainly can afford to hire the best and brightest talent to be sure.
