It’s been over a year since my last post. And not much has changed. RIMM is dying a slow death. Google still can’t build a product that can compete with Apple for consumer mind share. The iPad is still a deeply flawed, beloved device. And the next big thing is still the TV. If the rumors prove to be true and Apple executes with TV no better than it did with the iPad, this company will dominate the entertainment and consumer electronics industry much like Standard Oil and General Motors did in their industries.
The potential impact of a ”real” TV from Apple cannot be overestimated. The iPhone, iPod, iPad were momentous, like hurricane Irene. Real Apple TV will be much more like the Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami.
