John Terenas is...
50 going on 51.
So, you know, he has a lot of time to give to this role.
Probably another 15 years before we'll see another transition at the top of Apple.
So I think...
Like with any big company, the succession plan has been in place for a good while and it's been well thought out.
And I would be very surprised if there was any unrest, I suppose, either within Apple or further afield that this was their choice of person.
I don't think he is going to walk in and immediately shake things up.
I don't think there's going to be any massive changes in strategy, mainly because he's been involved in strategy.
for a number of years.
So like this is kind of his apple, you know, as well as much as it is Tim Cook's, because as I said, you know, this plan is not something that they've just cooked up in the last few weeks.
This will have been coming for a long time.
Well, there has been rumors of a folding iPhone for a long time.
But I think the biggest indication of whether or not that's going to come is look at the iPhone Air and look how thin the iPhone Air is.
If you put two iPhone Airs together, you know, you've got a folding iPhone.
And that was generally the thought when the iPhone Air launched was that this was kind of the forerunner for a folding iPhone.
And we could see it if not this September, maybe next September.
But
I mean, Apple is good at playing its cards close to its chest.
As we get closer to the launch, you might see some leaks.
