Os xi
This is such a significant seed change. For all the complaints Siri and Maps get, one thing that seems to be absent is how significant both these technologies are to Apple's future. I think it was well understood by management that neither would be ready for prime time and both need to be used before they will become better; so I find the idea that Forstall was removed for not signing an apology interesting. It may well have been a strategical move by Tim Cook to get rid of him. But Cue is the guy, because Siri and Maps are services, like iCloud, iTunes, and App Store.
So, along those lines, Johnathan Ive is not just going to standardize OS X UI, he's going to reinvent OS X. OS 11 (or is it OS XI?) will be the OS re-imagined. Tim needed to get Forstall out of the way if they were successfully going to collaborate to produce the next generation OS. A common refrain lately is what will be Tim Cook's first innovate contribution post-Jobs. I think we just witnessed the beginning of it. OS XI will be Apple's next big thing. It will be a tight synthesis of hardware, software, and services.
