Someone want to try to analyze the scale of that photo and measure the phone?
Definitely a bigger phone in his pocket. Maybe an M8 or Nexus 5?
I am not quite sure exactly why, but part of it may be to the number of skilled people in the semiconductor industry that would not want to move to California. Intel and Texas Instruments are among the semiconductor companies there.
But I think another reason to have workers diversified would be in case of a natural disaster of something of that scale happening near Cupertino that it would not to leave Apple in complete crisis mode. Just as now it is common practice not to have all top executives fly on the same plane.
Mostly the Two Step.
NY offers better deals. Things like 20 years, no tax.
You are studying the bulges of another man's pants... Way too carefully...
None of the big dogs would risk taking the new device outside of campus labs.
Just my opinion, but I would rather live and work in Texas than California.
Well you never know. If its super kick ass Tim might not be able to stop himself from taking it outside

He's 6 foot 3
After Yosemite and iOS 8, I believe now when they say "Exciting products"
Yep WWDC was huge for developers. However I didn't see much that implied exciting products hardware wise. I just wish that Apple would start shipping new Macs, especially a Mini or replacement for the Mini.

That can be a bit misleading because there are so many taxes in NY! Beyond that the political environment in NY sucks as it has become a huge welfare state and possibly the least free state in the union. Almost anything that might be construed as fun is illegal in NY.
Austin is mainly technical support on multiple levels. Phone support, forums, and their website. They have a lot of tech writers in Austin that write the support pages for the apple help website. They also have corporate training group.
Then there are partners in Austin for apple to work with. Samsung's plant that produces the A7 chips and previous ones, it's actually on the same road as Apple's offices (Parmer Ln), just about 6 miles down the road. AMD has most of their offices, intel and Nvidia also have offices in town.
Tomorrow's Split after the Bell
Let's say it closes at $650 tomorrow, Friday. That'll put it at a spilt adjusted price of $92.86 per share. Seeing as there's NO after hours trading tomorrow, that's where it would open on Monday morning.
It's very possible to be "off to the races" just like California Chrome will be doing Saturday afternoon. Hmmm
I wonder if California Chrome wins the Triple Crown if that will be a positive omen for Apple to also do the same next week? Let's hope!

I wonder if they have patented the word "magical". I hope not, we don't need more patent wars

Time says that every time ...
Ya,, use of the word "magical" and "radically "awesome" if he wants to get with it with the cool kids.
I never knew Apple to admire a Trashcan like they did at the keynote. It's a trashcan icon for heavens sake..
I know Apple is all about perfection, but people honestly won't care how icons look, we'll still bu Apple products.
Tim's future is safe.

Other than a MacBook Air spec bump, Apple hasn't released any products this year. So you could see why people are getting a little antsy over new hardware.
We need one in Florida
Some people may not want to move to CA, TX or anywhere except FL That actually seems almost possible. A quick google search shows that Tim is only two inches taller than me (the internet is full of...interesting things)
I can assume similar hand size and my 5s comes from the bottom of my palm to right in the crease of my second set of knuckles.
The phone in his pocket definitely looks bigger then that, and there is no reason he would put a case on an iPhone 5s (looks too thin for that anyway)
