Ever listen to Steve Jobs? He's quite the talker. Kinda reminds me of John Kerry, but he can actually answer the questions he's asked. (He just usually responds with something like,"Our products are better than yours, and bring all the geeks to the yard.")
He's arrogantly confident. I'd say borderline Narcisistic. Just look at the iPhone. It screams "Your phones just aren't a good as me". You know what though? I'm not satisfied. I like the direction apple and google are going in. Both of them have this "We want our products to do EVERYTHING" mentality.
I want a phone that starts my car, unlocks my front door, buys me a soda from a vending machine, farms for gold on my MMOs, zaps my dog through her shock collar, and changes channels on the television. If I have a phone that can't do something, well then..it needs to be redesigned to do it!!!
Google is taking the same approach with the internet. They are the "reverse AOL". Where AOL tried to create its own version of the "internet" as a content provider, google has attacked the internet directly to slowly assimilate aspects of the internet, plus some more. Like books...nobody wants to scan every book in every library in the world. But Google's like "We have an army of scanners....get scannin". So soon, the library will be on the internets.
What's funny is all the people that have been screaming for "Information Freedom" are also the same ones now nagging,"What about my personal info?" ..but that is a topic for another time.
Point being is I want an iPhone, i'm using safari, oh god...first I become mormon and now i'm using apple products. What is going on with me? I don't feel so well....
