Q: Your investors seem to want you to make an apology of some sort — would you be willing to do that?
A Steve Jobs: [Long pause] To our customers who are affected by the issue, we are deeply sorry, and we are going to give you a free case or a full refund. We want investors who invest in Apple for the long haul, because they believe in us. To those investors who bought the stock and are down by $5, I have no apology. If we hit a bump in the road, it’s like having kids.
From the Q&A session at Apple’s iPhone press conference. Anyone asking for more than this is just looking for something to have a field day with on their blog. A full recall would be pointless, if their numbers are correct.
