Steve Jobs is still not dead, at least so far as new products introduced by Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) are concerned. There are rumors that the next two versions of the iPhone will have his fingerprints on them, which means these products were in development almost two years ago. It is hard to see how even a visionary like Jobs could see that far ahead.
However, according to CNET:
The late co-founder may have been involved in the development of the next two versions of iPhone, according to a report in the San Francisco Examiner. That information was supposedly imparted to San Francisco District Attorney George Gascón by Apple’s government liaison, Michael Foulkes, during discussions with Apple regarding the growing problem of mobile phone theft.
And:
[T]hat would seem to suggest that Jobs was involved with concept and design discussions about several future models not long before his death in October 2011.
