Steve Jobs was known not only as an amazing CEO but also for his revolutionary ideas and visions that left others struggle to compete. Steve Jobs passed away on Wednesday, October 5th in Palo Alto, California after years of struggling with pancreatic cancer. Jobs who has never completed college changed the world of technology when he became the CEO of Apple on 1997. He led Apple to become the leading company in technology with his inventions including iPod, iPhone and iPad. He said once that people do not realize what they need until you show it to them. What happened then was a revolution in technology starting with the introduction of iPhone. A gadget which can be operated entirely with only the tip of your finger. Competitors found it really hard to produce a gadget that can compete or even beat iPhone. That is why Steve Jobs will be missed even by his competitors. “I will surely miss Steve”, said Bill Gates who has been friend and rival for many years.

So what will happen to Apple? The announcement of iPhone 4S which took more than a year to be introduced has not received the expected hype. Some even predict that this new iPhone will be a flop.
