My Favorite Steve Moment
RIP Steve Jobs, 1955 - 2011
Just a quick memory to help me feel better, despite Steve’s death today:
I’ve enjoyed watching Steve perform at various Apple events over the last few years, but my absolute favorite moment was when, on January 27th 2010, Steve showed us the iPad for the first time.
Watch carefully and you can see Jobs — usually intense, focused, and well-paced in his keynote deliveries — just lose himself to the thing he’s holding. For a few brief moments, the audience and the cameras and the whole event just disappear and we’re left watching a man having a ball with his new toy.
He looked like he was in heaven.
