the real scott forstall wouldn't take the fall for tim's poor leadership and was forced out resulting in johnny ives gaining too much control over ios and its subsequent descent into what it is today (a pos os)

"good morning, after a period of self-reflection and business analysis led by the principles steve jobs laid down for this company, it is with great enthusiasm that we are announcing today that we will not be releasing the iwatch. we deeply regret initiating, developing and announcing a product that goes so far against the basic tenets of good product design and i, tim cook, would like to personally apologize for approving this concept.

effective immediately, i will be stepping down as ceo of apple as my conscience dictates. further, we are pleased to announce that johnny ives has sought other opportunities as a perpetually unemployed hack. now, i'm going to hand things over to our new ceo, scott forstall, who has some exciting announcements about the phase-out of the iphone 6 line and a classic re-design of ios that will restore the functionality and design that made it great"

*scott forstall waits for another loud applause break to subside*

"thank you, as you can see we have a great future ahead of us at apple now that we have emerged from beneath the cloud of uncertainty and poor leadership that has hung over this company since steve's departure... sorry, tim!" *polite laughter*

"one last thing today, before we move forward into the hard work of turning apple around: i am pleased to announce that we will be severing ties with the band u2 and pursuing legal action to claw back the money that was given to them in deep, regrettable error. as a further apology, i am pleased to announced that everyone who has accidentally (or deliberately) downloaded a u2 album will be given a $20 itunes credit as an apology"

so if you ever need to connect to a projector, you better pray you have enough battery life to last for the presentation?

or will they be rolling out some hideous squid-like dongle so you can be charging and using another device at the same time?

susan komen warming up the lawyers to jump headfirst into the hot world of tech litigation

ios 8.2 now with undeleteable iwatch app

a radical redesign of traditional timekeeping where one day is only 18 hours long
