Let's not forget his contributions to the film industry via Pixar. Since its introduction to the main stream, the CGI in movies has progressed and improved by leaps and bounds. The man truly had vision and knew what tech to keep an eye on.

On a lighter note, it wouldn't surprise me if it were discovered that Jobs or someone in his family tree helped give us sliced bread ;)

One of the absolute top CEO's of the last 30 years. Maybe one of the truly sad aspects is what he might have done on the charitable front putting his skills to use there in his later years.

I know this was rumored a year or two ago, and his health had always been a subject of rumor. Still shocking because you really heard very little about his health, outside of stepping down from CEO, the last few months.

From great competition comes great innovation.

Steve Jobs provided that for android.
You will be missed.

We would not be where we are today without you.

Agreed. Rest in peace, Mr. Jobs.

In front of my computer.
Saddened, yet moved...

I would like to start by saying that I wholeheartedly agree with all the previous posts about Jobs changing the technology world forever. The way we interact with our gadgets is largely modeled after the i-Devices because of how successful they have been. I know that the only reason that I love my Droid so much is because so many people loved their iPhones before that. I'd to say that I agree that cancer is, for lack of a better word, horrible. We've all felt the pain of losing someone to cancer, and it's never an easy thing. I would also like to say that it really moves me to log on to DroidForums for the first time in a while and see this thread and all of the positivity that it has spawned in all of my fellow respondents.
I'm sure I speak for all of us when I say that our thoughts are with his family and friends tonight. R.I.P. Steve. :yr1:

Sad news to hear. He has been a big reason why apple is where it is today. He pointed apple back into the direction of being top dog. Android would not be where it was if it was not for him giving people a vision of what to shoot for in technology.
This is very sad news. I pray God's comfort to be on his loved ones.

What a very sad day. R.I.P. Steve Jobs. I don't think the tech world will ever be the same without you. The impact of your passing won't be fully realized until years later.

See you in iHeaven

Today, I am proud of the android community as we paid our respects to Steve Job and his family, friends since he passed away at the age of 56 because of pancreatic cancer. There have been great posts by Google co-founders, Bll Gates and several others wrote about Steve. I may not be an iPhone fan, but Apple computers have been great and I love pixar movies, even before I had kids.

From my family to Steve's we will miss you and Thank you for all you did in your lifetime. Rest in peace 1955 - 2011

P.S. F'off Cancer!

RIP Steve Jobs! I may not own a thing you created (directly), but respect the ideas/inventions you created and ideas/inventions you spawned.
