sunsetstrip: The innovative concept of the PJB
yielded a bonanza for Apple, after it was pioneered by CPQ and others. Providing a place to store one's entire music collection and carry it along, the 6, 10 20 and ?? gig JB's gave consumers full opportunity to transport ALL OF THOSE NAPSTER files! This market was not only not dependent on the music industry adapting a downloading model, it prospered from the music industry NOT getting it together.

Had the Hytek TREO been released for sale WHEN it was promised, this company would have had better access to those consumers than Apple did.

I have no problem distinguishing between incompetent (and misleading management) and rotten luck.
