Remains of the Day: By the numbers

21.06.2011
One Apple employee finally got off iCloud. The iPhone 5 may or may not look different, and may or may not show up in a couple months. Speaking of iCloud and iPhones, most of us want to get our iPhones onto the former, and Israel wants a violence-encouraging app pulled from the latter. The remainders for Tuesday, June 21, 2011 aren't that good at math.

A new survey by RBC Capital Markets concludes that 76 percent of iPhone owners will use iCloud. I just completed my own independent research, which shows that 97 percent of dopey surveys yield reliably bogus statistics. And the other three percent yield unicorns.

Senior Product Manager for iCloud John Herbold now goes by a new moniker: Product Manager for iCloud John Herbold. He's left Apple to join HealthTeacher as a vice president. Are there any great iCloud puns we can make regarding Herbold's leaving? With luck, every iCloud departure has a silver lining. The tears we shed over Herbold's resignation left our vision clouded. After you've product managed iCloud, clearly the sky is the limit.
