It’s good to be Apple. Yesterday, Mac Blorge brought you news of the Cupertino, California-based Mac, iPod and iPhone maker’s blowout quarter. Today, we’re back with a report on perhaps the biggest factor driving the company’s sales — customer satisfaction.
As 2009 comes to a close, Apple has still not as much as commented on the hottest scuttlebutt of the year, the iTablet, leaving the fate of the hottest rumors of the past year swaying in the breeze.
If you looked at Apple, just Apple, and extrapolated to the whole economy, you would probably think the nation was enjoying an economic boom. Although we don’t have anything official from the mothership, the legible tea leaves to date indicate the Cupertino, California-based Mac, iPod and iPhone maker once again had a very merry Christmas.
Nokia has taken another step in what may be a long war of posturing and courtroom appearances relative to its dispute with Apple over patents for cell phone technology.
Since we are guessing about everything else, and since we have no actual facts to go on, we may as well guess about the name for the much-rumored Apple tablet, just to keep our hands in.
If I had a multi-million dollar payday, there’s a very good chance you wouldn’t see me around here much anymore. For people, such as Apple Chief Operating Officer, a laid back man not known for saying more than he needs to, coming into that much money probably was a happy day, but not a turning point per se — it’s the game, the chase that get people like him out of bed in the morning. That is, treasure is an affirmation, but not the measure of self worth.

The year 2009 has been a year of positive and negatives for Apple, but at the end of it all, the Cupertino giant has finished well above where it started the year in all of the categories that matter.
Whereas today’s iWork.com is definitely a “cloud lite” product, a more feature complete version could be in the works as the mothership advertises for new worker bees with mad JavaScript, browser, scalable rich Internet, presentation and collaboration development skillz. Losers need not apply.
What do you get when you add tablet rumors, an unhealthy sense of curiosity (step away from that Mac and talk to your family) and unlimited access to domain information? Well, you get a compelling narrative on the effort Apple has taken to secure and hide the tradename for their Mac tablet, iPod touch on steroids, nay, iSlate.
