I have been putting this off for sometime. I met Chandra when they were conceptualizing the product and he was interested in hiring me for it. He had a grand vision, but I found him completely out of depth. He kept harping about building an OS for the next generation of devices, being the next Microsoft etc. etc., and seemed drunk on his own kool aid. He threw TC's and MA's name freely. Looking at this makes me squeamish now. Good that I turned it down.
But, I still respect him for kind of pulling it off. Conceptualizing a device and taking it to the market is tough and kudos to them for it. I know, since I tried and failed in doing the same thing. But this kill any chances they had for an acquisition or buyout, completely. Nobody's going to even touch them anymore. I guess that's what MA's trying to do.
Sad to see how it turned out.
