“Eric Schmidt went public this week with his defense against Steve Jobs’ claim that Google stole the final idea for Android from Apple,” Rob Enderle writes for Forbes. “He argued that Android proceeded iOS and that Google is known as a great innovator.”
“It is an interesting argument, particularly the last part, which seems to fly in the face of the facts that after search, Google often has appeared to copy Apple, Microsoft and Facebook poorly as some sort of bad parody of Microsoft,” Enderle writes. “This Microsoft comparison, to be clear, was delivered in Steve Jobs’ final words to Google’s CEO and didn’t come from me.”
“Now calling Steve Jobs a liar after death seems pretty ballsy to me particularly given Schmidt didn’t seem to want to do this during Steve Jobs life,” Enderle writes. “Working from the Wikipedia Timelines (seems appropriate since this is about Google) for both products, Eric Schmidt’s tenure on Apple’s board, and Jobs comments let’s see of Jobs belief that Schmidt and Google stole from Apple holds together.”
