I saw this on FB and assumed they were Sweet Princing.

Same here, upon further inspection it was actually true. I wasn't expecting it

Mere days after this new iPhone is made public? Crazy, and a shame.

Day after, to be precise.

Can't say i'm surprised after Jack Layton passed away, cancer progresses very fast. Lots of respect for someone who never gave up even when Apple was headed into the gutter at the beginning of the 21st. He turned it all around and now you can't walk 10 meters without seeing someone with an Apple product. A true 21st century icon of innovation.

at least he made it to that release, im sure that mattered to him. glad to see apple didnt release too much personal info on his death

[Matt Wah]

They even took the 4s promo off the homepage for a full page memorial for him. Class

[Kitrasaur]

Very big shame, i liked him

[Linke]

He was such a good man and innovator! Such a loss! Hopefully makes us realize that no one can escape death

[Doc]

He was such a good man and innovator! Such a loss!

How?

How?

Is that a serious question?

[Joshjrn]

I suppose that good man is up for debate. Innovator, not so much.

I've never met him in real life. How do I, or anyone that never actually met him, know that he's a good man? He could be a complete dick for all I know.

Innovator? If I'm not mistaken, Bill Gates had a Tablet PC released a few years before the iPad. Also, I prefer his Zune over iPod anyday. The battery lasts x3 as long. I could listen to mine for an hour every day for a week before it's halfway dead. My iPod battery lasted.. a day, and you could actually see the battery bar degenerating as I turned music louder.

You don't seem to understand what the word "innovator" means.

[respect]It's a shame that he's gone.[/respect] If you can successfully market inferior products for ridiculous prices, you're doing something right, I guess...

How?

for starters he created pixar. he was also the co-founder of apple, got fired, came back to a shit hole of a company and made apple the most valuable publicly-traded company in the world.

u mirin'?

He will be missed, but always remembered!

[Rafi]

He was a true innovator of our time. I'm glad his wife and kids will never have to worry about money after his death— he deserved it, even if his salary was only $1 a year!

[Houston Coog]

quite a shame, he was a great innovator
