Someone have drunk too much Kool-Aid ... What's so uncool about AAPL is the closed platform, that killed so many innovations.
I do like apple products but really what innovation did they kill? Do you know how unthinkable an app store model was 5 years ago? Sure there are innovative things happening on android but would it even exist without iPhone?
All kind of products that would've competed with Apple bundled apps, or could've been seen as illegal in some state, or had some erotic content ...

Microsoft had a store 5 years ago. What does it have to do with Apple closing their platforms, to make higher profits, while stopping a lot of innovation?
>>Sure there are innovative things happening on android but would it even exist without iPhone?
Symbian, Windows CE and many more existed before the iPhone. As the price of hardware falls and mobile devices become more powerful/useful more and more users are getting smartphones. Android would've made perfect sense, w/o iPhone.
Do watch the video. Great design!
This is getting ridiculous. Why do we up vote something that is a given? HN, stop it! You only up vote things that make you learn something. Why on earth did pohl just get 16 points for nothing. We need to stop with the promoting of things like "thank you" or "good job" Im sorry, I just went on a little rant. The cover is awesome, but did I just learn anything from pohl? I don't care to see this comment over more inf…
That gives a great indicator as to whether or not the video is worth my time. The comment could have easily said that the video is a waste of time, which would also be helpful. People won't upvote it if they disagree.

Proof positive we are in the karma bubble here!!
What's cool about AAPL is that it inspires such innovative designs. Beautiful.

If that's a solid sheet of microfiber on the inside, then I'm sold. The thing that irritates me most about the Smart Cover is that it leaves streaks on the glass where the indentations are.
