Who will make the Apple iPad 2 announcement?
It’s 4 days until the March 2 Apple Media Event when iPad 2 will be announced, but one question still remains, who unveil the device?
Will iPad 2 be announced by Steve Jobs, despite recent health issues, or will Tim Cook, acting Apple chief, make the announcement?
TechRadar reports Apple’s shareholders are already asking for updates regarding Steve’s health and status with the company, and given that issue, it would appear that Apple COO and acting-CEO Tim Cook will announce iPad 2 March 2.
NewsFactor states:
“Steve Jobs has resisted a succession plan for a long period of time. So while the board is signaling that it has one, that plan might simply constitute that they are going to go out and look for somebody,” Enderle said. “Whoever is named CEO of Apple after Jobs is clearly going to have a big impact on the valuation of Apple. Most companies like Apple that lose its iconic founder flounder for a while and tend to have a fairly steep decline in stock price at least for the first few years.”
