My main concern with Apple is not that it will lose the ability to release revolutionary products, but that it may lose the confidence to eliminate all superfluous features and make them "just work". There were tablets before the iPad, and smart(ish) phones before the iPhone, but the Apple products were the first that were not only useful, but a pleasure to use. Jobs was well known for his stubbornness and knack for saying "no". I'm concerned that without his almost dictator-like control over product direction, Apple may begin to release compromised products that don't deliver on their values of creating a simplified and effortless user experience.
