It's not in Apple's DNA to apologize. Jobs would have said "We are building the most revolutionary mapping system ever created. This is an active endeavor and if it doesn't currently meet your needs we have at least 100 other mapping apps in the app store."
And then Jobs wouldn't have said anything else about the subject and moved on.
The reality distortion field is fading fast with Cook in charge. Jobs would have made everyone think they're part of a mapping revolution. Cook has allowed everyone to think they got ripped off.
The first one isn't a technical problem. And the second isn't from Jobs.
Here's the problem. Apple's technology has flaws. Jobs was great at convincing people that flaws were features. I believe his ability was fundamental to their success.
Cook admits flaws are flaws and this could slowly start to change people's perception of Apple's products.
I think that this "Jobs would have done" attitude is wrong and far from constructive. First of all Jobs wasn't a genius, wasn't a saint, he was a very good techy entrepreneur. I think this is the right move on from Apple; they messed up big time and now they apologised for it.
And regarding Jobs.. get over it... he probably would have done a lot of things but he is sadly not among us anymore so stop guessing what he would have done or wouldn't have done.
