The switches are th begining of the end
I'm going to leave Apple pretty soon. And its the right call.
We can't keep this up. Beleive me, I know, I was there the last time we nearly went out of business, and i don't want to do it again. I've pulled millons of dollars out, and there won't be millions more to get.
The switches on the iPad 2 are a signal. Go find an Ipad 2 and an orignal iPad and you'll know what I mean. Run your fingers over the on/off switch, or the mute switch. On the original iPad they are understated, smooth, and comfortable. On the iPad 2 they are clunky, harp-edged, and "funny" feeling.
What does this mean? Means we,or in this case Steve, did NOT sweat the details. These switches are crap. We shouldn't do crap. But there it is, a crappy feel.
If we lose the total eperience, we lose all we are. And these switches are a symbol of SJ not being totally involved, a symbol of our losing touch.
We're done. Time to go.
