I wonder if any of this will be in the biography coming out in November...? It's very short notice, but perhaps they could squeeze something in?

You know, Jobs is a such a contrary bastard that it wouldn't surprise me at all if he waited until the day after all the copies of that autobiography had been shipped to distributors to announce his retirement....

Steve: "How's the book coming?"
Walter: "Good, but I can't figure out how to end it..."

Interesting article from the New York Times about Steve's 313 patents (including a glass staircase and the 'hockey puck' mouse).

Out of those 313 how many did he actually contribute to in a meaningful way rather than his name just gets appended to it?

Caveat emptor and all that, but:
First photo since June of Jobs.

Not looking well, if this is for real.
