    re: remote controls

    Who the h*** are you to say what he did was a big waste of time and money? He wanted to spend time with his wife and kids, so that's why he gave the project to a friend to develop. There's nothing wrong with that, in fact I commend that decision.

    Yes, But....

    Remember that lots of money does not a great poduct make. Innovation is what Woz needs the most of. A Macintosh compatible PDA would be a great start!

    PDA

    There's nothing innovative about a PDA. It's been done.
