Steve Jobs Apple Tablet

I think that when a company's name is synonymous with innovation, that could only mean good things for its future. Of course, Apple is one such company that is actually innovating in more ways than I even imagined; the small aside about Apple computers being made with relatively more environmentally friendly materials is a fact that I find very interesting. I am guilty of incorporating one of their products (my iPod) into my day-to-day life and almost tricking myself into believing that it is an absolute necessity on par with wearing clothes. The fact that I can carry my whole music library around in my pocket still astounds me to this day.

Now, Steve Jobs' words that the Apple Tablet is "the most important thing" he's "ever done" is sure to provide a steady growth of hysterical anticipation; it reminds me of the press that explicitly stated that the 3-D technology surrounding James Cameron's Avatar would revolutionize the movie industry in the months leading up to its release. I think in retrospect, now that Avatar has single-handedly become the highest-grossing movie of all time and still looks to be unstoppable, it is safe to say that we shouldn't mince the words of people with good track records. Especially when the hype is also ballooning due to the words from Jobs' peers such as Michael Arrington.
