我唔會買 iPad！
iPad 終於出世。這並不是甚麼驚喜。如果結果昨晚 Steve Jobs 改為宣佈一些 iPad 以外的東西，那才是大新聞！反而，未到戲肉前，Steve Jobs 宣佈的公司表現資料卻有點使我意外：不是他說前幾天 Apple 賣出了有史以來第 250,000,000 部 iPod（這些數字大得咁上下便會失去感覺，如麥當勞說自己全球每日賣出一千萬個漢堡包一樣沒有意義……），而是他說原來以 revenue 計 Apple 已爬過 Sony、Samsung 甚至 Nokia 成為賣得最多 Mobile Devices（手機、MP3、手提電腦、攝錄機、相機等） 的公司！ Anyway，看完 Steve Jobs 的 Keynote，再看大眾的評論，發覺大家毀譽參半。我覺得大家仍是偏向從產品和科技的角度多過從 user experiences 角度去看。可能會在短短數小時之內關注並發聲的人多是 geek 底，會較多留意功能、OS、接駁等硬事實。 我反而很在意 Steve Jobs 在開場白時搬出來的 product justification：市場有沒有空間去容納一件介乎 Smart-Phone（如 iPhone）與 Notebook Computer（如 MacBook) 的產品呢？又或者，如果你已經有一部 SmartPhone 和一部 Notebook Computer，那你還有沒有需要再買這件 “Something in Between” 的產品呢？…

After sending some applicants through the background checks, training and testing, they narrowed the…
Bangalore Day 2 Part B
Lunch was served at the canteen. Vegetarian Indian food. Taste very good. I kind of liked it. And it was not too spicy and didn’t cause me to go to the toilet right away, so that was good. I had another long meeting during the afternoon, and at the end of the day (7:30pm) the…
