It is definitely a good time to be working for Apple. The company is doing incredibly well and probably about to do even better as it launches what is the most anticipated gadget in a very long time. And today, Apple employees got a small gift from Steve Jobs. Every full-time employee in the US (with at least one year of service) will receive a free 8GB iPhone by the end of July.
Steve Jobs also talked about what the iPhone means for Apple. He described it as adding a third leg to a chair with only two legs. The first leg is Apple’s Mac lineup which promises to be off the charts when new products come out next year. The second leg is the iPhone and associated iTunes online store. Steve Jobs also hopes that Apple TV will become the fourth leg but the immediate focus will remain on the iPhone for now.
Jobs also dropped a hint that future iPods could be powered by Mac OS X (as the iPhone is).
I bet Apple also gets a few more resumes tomorrow!
