I wonder how much of Apple's bad press is due to the absense of Steve's RDF? The iPod was ridiculed for lack of features, and Apple made a point of removing rather than adding... yet succeeded. Wires are a nuisance... earpods are innovative. Perhaps it's really a deficit in selling-it. OTOH smartphones and desktops have overshot demand, so it's downhill whatever they do.
