That's still not an admission of "defeat". It's admitting they were maybe a bit callous with how they handled it, but they're still "full-steam ahead" on USB-C — until the next magical, panacea connector standard shows up.
- redler 10y agoThere's a near future in which USB C will be as ubiquitous as A. It's the first standardized, reversible, durable, and versatile adapter -- and it's not Apple's invention. Apple is willing to annoy the margins to ensure that by the time that near future arrives, they've got a substantial installed base of tens of millions already established. They have the luxury of employing a strategy.
