Letter from Steve Jobs
To the Apple Board of Directors and the Apple Community:
I have always said if there ever came a day when I could no longer meet my duties and expectations as Apple’s CEO, I would be the first to let you know. Unfortunately, that day has come.
I hereby resign as CEO of Apple. I would like to serve, if the Board sees fit, as Chairman of the Board, director and Apple employee.
As far as my successor goes, I strongly recommend that we execute our succession plan and name Tim Cook as CEO of Apple.
I believe Apple’s brightest and most innovative days are ahead of it. And I look forward to watching and contributing to its success in a new role.
I have made some of the best friends of my life at Apple, and I thank you all for the many years of being able to work alongside you.
Steve
It is sad to see Steve leave and we will probably no longer see him on stage releasing Apple’s best but we will remember him as Apple’s CEO and of course he will help continue to bring Apple’s best to the world. Good luck Steve.

It seems that HP is backing down. Today HP announced that it is going to step out of the hardware business by saying they are not going to discontinue ALL webOS devices. webOS was a good operating system but had trouble making sales. BestBuy even wanted the TouchPad out of their stores because it wasn’t selling. So now There is only 4 mobile phone systems. Android,Windows Phone 7, iOS, and Blackberry OS. Also HP has announced that it is no longer gonna make windows based computers. HP said it wi continue to evaluate possibilities of WebOS. It’s been a good run WebOS hope to see you in the future.

Looks Like You’ll still be able to have a Magic Mouse
Well luckily the rumor of Apple canceling the Magic Mouse is not correct and Apple is just changing the magic mouse to have a new part number and have better access to Lions multitasking gestures. So all you people including me that love having a mouse can rest easy knowing that it isn’t going anywhere anytime soon.

Apple Going To Discontinue Magic Mouse for Magic Trackpad?
Well I hope you all like trackpads because CultOfMac got news that Apple might be discontinuing the Magic Mouse for the new gesture friendly Magic Trackpad.
We’ve gotten word from a previously reliable source that Apple is discontinuing the Magic Mouse in favor of the Magic Trackpad. Our retail source has informed us that Magic Mouse inventory is not being replenished for Apple stores, and that Apple is finally phasing out the Magic Mouse.
This is very hard to believe because not everyone wants a trackpad. I would rather have a mouse than a trackpad for my desktop. This could be that they are going to have a different mouse all together that brings more gestures to the mac which Apple would probably do than just have the trackpad be the future. So basically what I think will happen is that the magic mouse is going to get an upgrade for the new gestures in lion.
More white iPod touch 5 rumors.
White iPads and white iPhones what’s next? A white iPod touch of course. 9to 5mac has gotten photos of what it claims is the next iPod touch in white. Of course the home button won’t be black. Well at least I hope not. Here is what 9to5mac has on their page.
“Since we posted photos last week of a white front panel for an iPod touch, more white iPod touch parts have emerged. Our first part photographs were taken in Asia, close to Apple’s manufacturing plants, and now these parts have begun to appear in the United States. Reader Lafayette from the East Coast of the United States has managed to obtain his own set of white iPod touch parts.These parts were marketed as being for the fourth generation iPod touch, and appear to fit perfectly based on this photo and the ones after the break. These white iPod touch parts started emerging this month, just weeks ahead of Apple’s annual iPod-focused event. With a typically credible analyst’s report claiming that the next iPod touch will not feature any external changes, one could assume that the white iPod touch parts we have seen are for a fifth-generation iPod touch with no external changes – other than the color. This would obviously allow them to fit on the current iPod touch model, too.”
Here is another image of the device.

New iPad TV ad “We’ll Never”
Apple has a new TV ad with the iPad showing how the iPad is changing the way we do things. Just like the “If you asked” Tv ad.
We’ll never stop sharing our memories… or getting lost in a good book. We’ll always cook for our favorite team. We’ll still go to meetings, make home movies, and learn things. But how we do all this will never be the same.
Also at the end of the ad as a quick little promotion for the new Mac OS X you notice the Alphabet fun app the kid in the video is using one of the words is LION. Good timing and good little promotion huh?
Goodbye White MacBook
Well MacBook your time has come. The white MacBook has been discontinued today due to the new powerful MacBook Air. It has been a good run. You will be missed.
Lion is available to download now!
Well the day has finally come. The the day where your internet connection is going to go insane. The day Lion is available to download from the Mac App Store. Yes Apple has released the new OS today like they said they would at a giant 3.5GB download size. It is going to take me a few hours or days to download Lion but when it is done soon after I promise a video review of the features and what you can do with the newest OS. To download Lion just launch the Mac App Store and click the Lion banner and then buy, download, and install.
