Today we learned: 1. Apple considers 90 free trial essential. 2. Apple can pivot in less than a day. 3. Apple will engage on social.

      @reneritchie I doubt Apple pivoted in less than a day, was probably in the works since WWDC, and what a perfect day to announce the change.

      @reneritchie no way this was less than a day. Think about contracts. Those don’t turn around like that. Ever. That depends on labels.

      @reneritchie how many contracts is that? I think you guys are missing it if you think this really happened in a day. Makes no sense.

      @reneritchie you honestly think deals where done in 24 hours with all labels? Smart money says I doubt it.

      @nery78 What difference does that make? Apple said “here, take some extra money”, and said it publicly. What else matters?

      @reneritchie I’m skeptical this wasn’t already in motion and this is hardball being played out in public. Good for everyone regardless

      @reneritchie @mikecane Didn't we already know Apple could pivot in less than a day, or was that only Steve Jobs?

      @SumocatS @mikecane Apple under Jobs typically spent days/weeks in silent consideration before saying/doing anything.

      @mikecane Steve Jobs didn't pivot on that issue. His Apple didn't apologize; Cook's Apple does. @reneritchie

      @mikecane He never caved. He only admitted we weren't holding our iPhones properly. Sorry you're stupid, here's a bumper. @reneritchie

      .@reneritchie @TheRomit Apple "pivots". MS "concedes" or "U-turns" or some other term implying weakness. 😆
