If only they had put a USB slot on it and opened up the platform for development entirely. It would take off like nothing else. I mean, security? Okay.. Don't allow the developers to access the network. Past that, let them do everything to the damn device that they want to.
Doesn't Steve remember the Apple II? It was so successful because it was programmable and had expansion slots.

Wozniak says that's the only real heated argument they ever had. Still. I wouldn't bet against Jobs knowing what's up. He was definitely right about the minimalist iPod. I want a fold out keyboard anyway.
- leoc 19y agoTrue; the original Macintosh is well known for having no slots, and for that matter no cursor keys.
