00:27:45 ◼   ► really am and it wasn't just me trying to write a column that was [TS]

00:27:49 ◼   ► not about data collection but I really do think especially for 3.2 billion [TS]

00:27:54 ◼   ► which again not that much compared to Motorola but it's a lot of money [TS]

00:27:58 ◼   ► especially for a company that i think is only currently at like a hundred and [TS]

00:28:02 ◼   ► some million dollars in revenue a year bigger picture and I just I R I don't [TS]

00:28:14 ◼   ► have never met Tony Fadell but I just get the feeling that he's a lot more [TS]

00:28:18 ◼   ► ambitious than that but it was never about thermostats and smoke and they [TS]

00:28:24 ◼   ► were invested Google Ventures was invested and test prior to this and so I [TS]

00:28:30 ◼   ► haven't read about how that worked about how what that how that month a [TS]

00:28:38 ◼   ► transaction works out when Google Ventures as an investor in something [TS]

00:28:43 ◼   ► that they end up buying yeah and answering but it more or less it's not [TS]

00:28:50 ◼   ► quite like three billion dollars because a lot of that three billion or Lisa [TS]

00:29:26 ◼   ► mean they have product people and there's no doubt that $25 a great [TS]

00:29:32 ◼   ► product I M Google really needs a great product by more than half I agree on [TS]

00:29:39 ◼   ► both parts I think if they really wanted Tony Fadell they would have kept him [TS]

00:29:43 ◼   ► yeah and and and but my understanding is that when fidel left Apple it was not it [TS]

00:29:49 ◼   ► may not have been singing Kumbaya you know I think it was slightly contentious [TS]

00:31:09 ◼   ► you know could be I always thought it was a little bit more with forestall [TS]

00:31:24 ◼   ► even though forestall by all accounts that i've ever heard really had nothing [TS]

00:31:29 ◼   ► to do with the design of iPhone hardware but he you know until he was ousted he [TS]

00:31:35 ◼   ► was the undisputed leader of violence software you know other than Steve Jobs [TS]

00:31:42 ◼   ► in a dog stem back from the early days of how are they going to you know when [TS]

00:31:59 ◼   ► iPod or something like it some other things like a sort of an embedded [TS]

00:32:05 ◼   ► systems type thing based on and build that up as I go home and basically a so [TS]

00:32:12 ◼   ► basically the new wave of iPods would be based on iPhones I well but but also was [TS]

00:32:20 ◼   ► in charge of pods and it was probably clearly becoming clear that that [TS]

00:32:28 ◼   ► division would be less important right in the future and would also probably be [TS]

00:32:33 ◼   ► pushed into using software that was under control right well they were right [TS]

00:32:39 ◼   ► like in the first iPod Touch and it to my understanding I don't even know if [TS]

00:32:43 ◼   ► there is a division anymore because I mean who knows what's going on with ya [TS]

00:32:48 ◼   ► with nine iPod touch iPod but like the original iPod Touch which came out three [TS]

00:32:54 ◼   ► three months after the iPhone was built by the same people who did the iPhone I [TS]

00:33:00 ◼   ► mean clearly software wise it was i mean I think the only difference was that [TS]

00:33:03 ◼   ► they had instead of having an epic member the iPhone for a couple of years [TS]

00:33:08 ◼   ► had an app called iPod the iPod it had two apps music video but other than that [TS]

00:33:16 ◼   ► it was the exact same software so I said I always thought that that was my [TS]

00:33:20 ◼   ► understanding somewhat informed I don't have any direct source no secret you [TS]

00:33:24 ◼   ► know high-level source who absolutely positively confirmed it but when I wrote [TS]

00:33:29 ◼   ► about it nobody usually having to fight taking informed gas and I'm wrong [TS]

00:33:33 ◼   ► somebody will correct me off the record and then I'll try to correct it publicly [TS]

00:33:38 ◼   ► but like the story I've heard and told him his number corrected on his moral as [TS]

00:33:41 ◼   ► the dow and Steve Stockman and a few others built you know where you know [TS]

00:33:48 ◼   ► like two teams one team went to build an iPhone that was based on like a Linux [TS]

00:33:53 ◼   ► embedded system things sort of like not who knows with the interface would have [TS]

00:33:57 ◼   ► been like but effectively like more like what we knew of that as iPods and burt [TS]

00:34:05 ◼   ► Ron and survey and forestall engineering and design went off to let's take [TS]

00:34:15 ◼   ► Pakistan and build something new that could run on a fun sized device and you [TS]

00:34:21 ◼   ► know that's the side that won and when they did you know that was clearly the [TS]

00:34:25 ◼   ► new a team and Apple infidel wasn't really part of it and the way I [TS]

00:34:29 ◼   ► remembered pretty much the way I phrased it done during fireball was that you [TS]

00:34:32 ◼   ► know the iPhone is clearly the new a team and Tony Fadell doesn't seem like a [TS]

00:34:36 ◼   ► BTM guy and so I wasn't like he was pushed out and it wasn't contentious I [TS]

00:34:41 ◼   ► think he just saw that he was no longer you know when he was leading the iPod [TS]

00:34:46 ◼   ► division he was the leader of the 18 and up so he left but I don't think it was [TS]

00:34:52 ◼   ► contentious and yeah and I also think and I think you mentioned the same thing [TS]

00:34:57 ◼   ► that if Apple wanted to build a smart thermostat of their own they could but [TS]

00:35:01 ◼   ► they don't need to buy someone to do it doesn't seem like there's still wasn't [TS]

00:35:08 ◼   ► as important they want to get into home automation then yeah I guess they could [TS]

00:35:16 ◼   ► they could have bought them but it seems like they could also just do the same [TS]

00:37:37 ◼   ► you don't have to know you start by building a regular app and then they [TS]

00:37:41 ◼   ► turn it into the demo it's not like a framework or something like that they [TS]

00:37:44 ◼   ► have to start with from scratch so if you're an app developer you really [TS]

00:37:48 ◼   ► should check it out just to satisfy your curiosity how the damping words to [TS]

00:37:53 ◼   ► really pretty interesting [TS]

01:17:21 ◼   ► the same pixel size the virtual pixels not the actual pictures when they went [TS]

01:17:25 ◼   ► retina they decide every virtual pixel is now four pixels and pat is the same [TS]

01:17:40 ◼   ► they did with the iPad except instead of shrinking it they would grow it and they [TS]

01:17:44 ◼   ► would make an iPhone with the same number of pixels as the iPhone 5s and [TS]

01:17:50 ◼   ► iPhone 5 but that they would just be 264 pixels per inch instead of three hundred [TS]

01:17:56 ◼   ► and twenty-three so effectively would be the same pixel resolution as the iPad [TS]

01:18:02 ◼   ► air and they would just cut as you know I got four point six inch screen out of [TS]

01:18:07 ◼   ► it and then grabs would all just work and developers would have to change [TS]

01:18:10 ◼   ► anything that everything would just be a little bit bigger [TS]

01:18:13 ◼   ► and that makes total sense and it would also cause a connection with all of the [TS]

01:18:18 ◼   ► people who read gadget and gizmo in the varied because it wouldn't be you know a [TS]

01:18:25 ◼   ► 1080p 1986 they be like this Android phone is more pixels but trust me if the [TS]

01:18:35 ◼   ► screen is gonna fly poder it's good enough for an iPhone here but I don't [TS]

01:18:40 ◼   ► want people say when people say that they're going to make a six-inch iPhone [TS]

01:18:45 ◼   ► well then I don't understand because then it doesn't work then it doesn't [TS]

01:18:48 ◼   ► work out they'd have to come up and in theory you know of course it could be [TS]

01:18:52 ◼   ► that they'll say to developers hey now you have a new got another one avenue [TS]

01:18:55 ◼   ► size to support you have to you know do you want your apt to look right on this [TS]

01:19:00 ◼   ► you've got to code and design for a new size with a bigger iPad I don't know how [TS]

01:19:09 ◼   ► they would do that because they've already I think the iPad error is [TS]

01:19:13 ◼   ► already running at the minimum number of pixels prints that they could use to [TS]

01:19:18 ◼   ► call it that if they just just blew it up by another two or three inches [TS]

01:19:23 ◼   ► diagonally it wouldn't really it would start to look a little bit on rent or [TS]

01:19:28 ◼   ► they could make it bigger but then say the developers now you have a new size [TS]

01:19:31 ◼   ► to support but they haven't done that to date you know when they went retina they [TS]

01:19:36 ◼   ► didn't see you in New size does support they said you designing for the same [TS]

01:19:40 ◼   ► size but now everything should be you know twice the resolution so I just [TS]

01:19:45 ◼   ► don't understand what they would do for a bigger I've had like that [TS]

01:19:49 ◼   ► yeah I think it also fits into the pipe dream cuz I could see that he would do [TS]

01:19:59 ◼   ► it someday but there's a contingent of people who desperately want Apple to [TS]

01:20:04 ◼   ► complicate the iOS UI by allowing you to say run to AB side-by-side and I i mean [TS]

01:20:13 ◼   ► by that I'm hesitant to call it a pipe dream because as the future goes on [TS]

01:20:19 ◼   ► maybe that's inevitable you know as iOS grows and needs and I certainly don't [TS]

01:20:24 ◼   ► deny that at times it would be useful and if the device actually had a bigger [TS]

01:20:27 ◼   ► screen might make sense but I'm just saying don't hold your breath because [TS]

01:20:32 ◼   ► that would make it more complicated there's no meu I don't see that I don't [TS]
