A Letter To Steve Jobs
July 22, 2007
Dear Steve,
I am sorry to bother you but I have sent several requests through the various channels at Apple and I figured ‘hey, why not do what I do best?’ and Blog a letter to the “GO TO” guy at the company I love. The one guy at Apple I know from watching all your various presentations on YouTube, knows how to use the internet effectively.
So Steve, to begin, I love my iPhone. I splurged and went and bought the top of the line 8 gig model with all the excitement I had when I bought my first Apple IIe. Yes Steve, I have supported you and your company for a long long time.
But… I have noticed as a person now writing eBooks with my partner that someone forgot to do two really very important things on the iPhone that would be so simple to fix quickly and easily. Can I request those two functions from you? They will only take a limited amount of effort I promise.
1) Put Adobe Reader on the iPhone. With only one change in order to use it better… let it work in the landscape mode like the internet browser. This way I can read the eBooks I have purchased in comfort. I look forward to the day iTunes will sell PDF files (eBooks) especially the ones I write but I know that is a much larger task for you.
2) Allow iTunes to copy over my PDF files (eBooks) I keep in a playlist in iTunes on my eMac and put them in iTunes on my iPhone to be opened by that Adobe Reader we were just talking about. You showed real brilliance for allowing me to use iTunes as a library for PDF files (eBooks) on my eMac. I would like to see this ability copied to my iPhone.
Those are the only two things I really can think of that would make my iPhone priceless to me.
Thank you for your time Mr. Jobs and Good Work on the iPhone.
A happy Apple customer,
TeddyPig
