Apple's website announced death of Steve.

Steve Paul Jobs, previously CEO and founder of Apple Computer. Largest industry and technology on the planet. Considered a revolutionary man, who always saw ahead of his time, because of its inventions, its business, and its power to raise your brand and get where they arrived. One of the richest men in the world. Surely a man with many qualities which made him a legend.

He died on Wednesday (5) to 56 years the entrepreneur Steven Paul Jobs, founder of Apple, Pixar and the father of products such as Macintosh, iPod, iPhone and the iPad.

Idolized by consumers of their products and for much of the employees of the company he founded in a garage in Silicon Valley, California, and helped turn the largest public company in the world by market value, Jobs was one of the biggest supporters popularization of the technology. He believed that computers and gadgets should be easy enough to be operated by anyone, as he liked to repeat in one of his favorite catchphrases, which was "just works" (in English, "it just works"). The impact of this vision was beyond his company and helped push the development of products like Microsoft's Windows.

Jobs's battle against cancer since 2004 left him physically weak in most commercially successful years of Apple, which escaped bankruptcy in the late 90th to become the largest technology company in the world. Since then, underwent a liver transplant and saw his obituary accidentally important vehicles such as Bloomberg. There are 42 days left the helm of the company.

Married to Laurene Powell since 1991, Jobs leaves four sons, Paul Reed, Erin Sienna and Eve, born of his relationship with Lauren and Lisa Brennan-Jobs, from a previous relationship with the painter Chrisann Brennan.

Surely a great loss for humanity, a revolutionary genius who achieved his goal: he changed the world.

Possible high-tech production in Brazil could reduce the price of iPads.

"Possible high-tech production in the country could reduce the price of Cases."

You were the one who was holding on to buy a iPad, hoping he could get cheaper in our market to have been manufactured here? Well, your wait may take even longer. The negotiations required to establish that Foxconn is not walked in the country as the government dreamed of, and plans for a national factory can actually atrasar.praticamente as a spokesman for Foxconn. Even he recently said that the Jundiaí plant was ready to begin production. Unfortunately it is not him who's boss in the market, which may prove far more unpredictable than he imagined.

Apparently, the BNDES will not even afford the $ 12 billion R such that Foxconn said it would invest, and now the project needs private funding to move forward. This caused another minister, the Development, Industry and Foreign Trade (Pimentel Fernando) stating that "it will take at least another year until they finish their project," according to the portal G1 .

Mercadante denied the claim, saying he believes the iPad will be created in the country by the end of the year, but it seems he is the only one who still believe that. The main problems are lack of skilled labor, power supply and local partners. The problem is that in Brazil, no one has enough clout to be a partner of such a large project.

Unfortunately, the Minister's statements Pimentel seem much more consistent than those of Mercadante, and it is not unreasonable to conclude that only see this mill running (if it really out of the paper) next year.
