Apple

Tim Cook:

I think Peter shared earlier the number of customers that had signed up for iCloud, and it’s already over 85 million, so it’s incredible that this has happened in just a few months’ period of time. We’re thrilled with it, and the response from customers has been incredible. It’s solved a lot of problems that customers were having and made their lives much much easier…. It was a fundamental shift recognizing that people had numerous devices and they wanted the bulk of their content in the cloud and easily accessible from all of their devices, and you know, I think we’re seeing the response from that. With 85 million customers in just three months, it is a very very important part—it’s not just a product, it’s a strategy for the next decade.

To co jest najistotniejsze w iCloud to fakt, że jest to chmura przeźroczysta. Nie utrudnia codziennych czynności, nie zawraca głowy. Nie przeszkadza. Największe zastrzeżenie mam do faktu, że iCloud nadal nie potrafi synchronizować dokumentów z OS X — integracja tej funkcjonalności już trochę trwa. Niemniej jednak, wolę aby Apple wprowadziło to dopiero jak produkt będzie gotowy, a nie w fazie beta. Powinno to już nastąpić niedługo …
