Steve Wozniak, Apple critic and the original Wozni-hacker

Opinion and Analysis

In short, Wozniak believes the iPhone should have been 3G from the start, doesn’t think the MacBook Air will be a runaway success in its current incarnation, and thinks the Apple TV should be improved, especially in the area of movie rentals which are only playable for a 24-hour period.

Wozniak also believes that Australia’s planned 12Mbps fibre-to-the-node network is only ‘adequate’ and forgets that our use of the Internet in the very near future will undoubtedly require vastly greater amounts of bandwidth speed.

Wozniak also commented on the upcoming US presidential election and some of the candidates.

For a detailed publication of the questions posed to Wozniak from a range of journalists, a fascinating article from Australian Personal Computer Magazine, written by Dan Warne, provides all the juicy details of exactly what Wozniak said – even down to Steve Jobs’ reaction when some ‘negative’ Apple press emanates from statements Wozniak has made.

Australia’s ZDNet has an article by Jo Best that has some of Wozniak’s comments, as does a News.com.au article written by Cath Hart.

Wozniak – the original Apple Wozni-hacker. Let’s hope Steve Jobs is truly listening to some of what Wozniak has to say, and brings out a 3G iPhone that will impress us all once again – and maybe this time even Steve Wozniak!
