That's only partly true. He said:
> As customers start to realise that the competition offers better functionality at a lower price, by negotiating a better subsidy, sales will stagnate. After a year a new version will be launched, but it will lack the innovation of the first and quickly vanish.
- esjeon 3y agoHe's still on the same line - network operators will kill the innovation what-so-ever.
- bonestamp2 3y agoI like the line after that where he wonders if the failure of the iPhone will take the iPod down with it. It's funny that the rampant success of the iPhone is actually what killed the iPod.
- soneil 3y agoThat I've always found interesting - a proper "skate to where the puck is going to be" moment. There was a good few years there where everyone was looking for the "iPod-killer". There's even a chance the Zune would have got there, except by time they got close .. that's not where the puck was. But I always found it interesting that after all that search for the "iPod-killer", none was ever crowned - instead the entire market just slipped silently into the night.
