You nailed it. I don't really like Apple products but their marketing is BEYOND REPROACH.
Hell, their commercials even turn songs into hits. The whole of Apple marketing will be very tough to beat, even by a phone that is 2X as good.
In all this time what has google created?.....Adwords. That's it, 98% of their income comes from that. They've never created anything else other than beta this and beta that. And in reality, they didn't even invent PPC, they just made it better.
I don't understand why people are so confident in Google, they have a very limited track record. Apple has been around forever, Microsoft has been around forever. Yet people seem to think Google will topple them both.
