I thought about what I was saying a bit, and I want to clarify that I fully support Apple for taking chances with this device. No one expected Apple, a computer company, to be able to meet the needs of so many users with one device so rapidly, in one shot. It is because of Apple's willingness to take a chance with creative ideas (or radically improve existing ones) is probably the primary reason why they succeed in the market they live in without having to resort to downsizing or poor customer service. In fact, Apple is ranked highest in customer satisfaction surveys, because they genuinely put their users first and foremost over the shareholders ... which then in conclusion appease the shareholders. Thanks again for sharing your feedback, and I welcome you to share further insight you have on other blog entries here. ~ Joe Thanks Paul for commenting! :)
