Steve Jobs’ resignation letter

Yes it’s true as you have all heard, Steve Jobs leaves his position as Apple CEO and remains as a chairman. below is his resignation letter:

“To the Apple Board of Directors and the Apple Community: I have always said if there ever came a day when I could no longer meet my duties and expectations as Apple’s CEO, I would be the first to let you know. Unfortunately, that day has come.

I hereby resign as CEO of Apple. I would like to serve, if the Board sees fit, as Chairman of the Board, director and Apple employee. As far as my successor goes, I strongly recommend that we execute our succession plan and name Tim Cook as CEO of Apple.

I believe Apple’s brightest and most innovative days are ahead of it. And I look forward to watching and contributing to its success in a new role. I have made some of the best friends of my life at Apple, and I thank you all for the many years of being able to work alongside you.

Steve”

I hope Tim Cook keeps the Apple fresh.. as it always was

Apple to launch iOS powered TV display!?

 

It has been rumored for a very long time, a TV apple display! “The former Apple executive, speaking with us on condition of anonymity, told us that that the company’s biggest upcoming product launch will be one that hasn’t been made official yet — Apple has plans to enter the TV business.” – DailyTech. The new display is said to be large with an Apple-TV built in, but will not be developed in-house as other Apple products.

Interesting, I’m definitely getting one of those.. if launched soon. the launch is expected to be on next fall.

I wish I could have posted a more detailed review… but this is what I currently have:

  • Shape
  • Installation
  • Performance
  • Antenna and reception

* Question: does Wataniya telecom. offer the micro-sim for voice/data, if yes. whats the procedure to get one and will it replace my current sim or i can use them both “closing one and runnin the other”

* i’ve sent an e-mail to the support dep. in wataniya few days ago asking the same Q above and when they finally replied all i got is this:

“Dear Valuable Customer,

Thank you for contacting us and giving us opportunity to serve you as we are more than willing to address your questions that you may have.

(We would like to ask you to visit the nearest Wataniya Branch to complete your request)

We hope the addresses your query.”

this wasn’t an automated reply but the “visit the branch” way they use to avoid answering any question really sucks.
