http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t4OEsI0Sc_s#t=3060s - the video at around the time in question.

I was watching the 2007 iPhone introduction, and Eric Schmidt did a speech on Google and Apple's collaboration. He said something interesting as he came on stage: "Congratulations Steve! What an incredible Job!"

This was confusing. Did he mean that Steve Jobs was an incredible Job (meaning that he was a rather incredible member of the Jobs family), or did he mean to congratulate Steve for a job well done on the iPhone? :confused::confused::confused:
