Steve Jobs 1955-2011

It is with the deepest regret that I bring you the news that Apple Co-founder Steve Jobs has died today aged 56 after a long battle with pancreatic cancer.

Statement released by Apples directors;

We are deeply saddened to announce that Steve Jobs passed away today.

Steve’s brilliance, passion and energy were the source of countless innovations that enrich and improve all of our lives. The world is immeasurably better because of Steve.

His greatest love was for his wife, Laurene, and his family. Our hearts go out to them and to all who were touched by his extraordinary gifts.

Steve was a true creative genius and however much us BlackBerry users might poke fun at the iPhone his quirkiness and trademark turtle neck will be truly missed, Our condolences go out to his family and loved ones.
