IMHO, the TRAB was initiated by former management, the key point. That regime had an entirely different strategy than the current one. When this current managment took over, they completely changed the focus of the company, with a new, clear vision. I believe the Apple speculation is counter-productive, the dot had its head cut off and sometimes the simpliest explanation is reality. Could Apple be in our future, sure why not, if the technology reaches full potential. Do I think we have some product in the can, there is much going on behind the scenes with Apple at the moment, no I don't. As a matter of fact, I would bet money that TRAB didn't meet for a long, long time prior to this announcement. Anyways, that's my opinion, I glaze over at the insistence of continuing the Apple talk, but you know what they say about opinions... Cheers.
