All of those ultra portables were expensive back then.

Not sure what you are trying to prove.

The apple watch is different, it's a device that needs to be tethered to your iPhone. Jobs would have NEVER let that come out, it would have to be more functional out of the box

Act like you know Steve jobs more then Jony Ive brehs

My point is Jobs released "flopped" products. It wasn't until they revamped the line and changed the price point the air caught on.

And you guys ridiculed Jobs for gimping apple products for years, don't see how it would be any different if he was alive.

The original MacBook Air was near the top of the line at the time.

Jobs wouldn't have released the Apple watch in the state it is currently in. The shyt should be called apple notifier.

Jobs would have never put a smart watch on the market...

Jobs may have started working on this years ago but he would have realized that in 2015 smart phones have effectively rendered watches into fashion accessories...Smart phone owners don't even use watches to tell time anymore, they use their phones...After seeing the competition struggle Jobs would have realized there really is no market for a smart watch outside of the workout niche and the $20 china joints fulfill that need...Like I said in another thread, its absolutely retarded charging people $400 for a watch that doesn't do anything more or less than they're $600 phone...

Tim Cook and his cronies have no vision, they're followers not industry leaders...They think anything they slap an apple logo on will sell but fail to realize that only applies to their sheepish stans... What made Jobs different was his ability to create a innovative product that attracted the masses and not just the apple sheep...

This could be true, but it's also convenient to say cuz Jobs aint here no more. I'm sure he still had a couple more flops in him.

It's not a knock on him tho. The tech industry is hard and NOBODY gets it right all the time. Google releases duds all the time. :yeshrug:

But was it ready for market?

And I disagree, there's now way of knowing what Jobs would do.
