The biggest news at the Apple event yesterday was the return of Steve Jobs – no tablet yet, but I still expect to see a super-sized iPod touch type of device sometime in the not-too-distant future…
Despite much speculation by Apple fans, the company made no announcements about a tablet-size computer or reading device.
But in the interview, Mr. Jobs said general-purpose devices are more appealing than specialized devices like Amazon.com’s Kindle e-book reader.
“I think people just probably aren’t willing to pay for a dedicated device,” he said. “You notice Amazon never says how much they sell; usually if they sell a lot of something, you want to tell everybody.”
