I doubt that 10 years ago SJ could have guessed Apple would make money mostly on phones and music player.

Given that the iPod came out 9 years ago, in 2001, I'm sure the market was on his radar. Heck, the iPhone started development in 2004, 6 years ago. And I have to believe Steve has a vision and was simply waiting for the technology to catch up.
