More of the same, more or less, at least for awhile longer. Then, probably what happened the last time Jobs left - unfortunately, this time Apple can't hire him back again.

Within the context of other OSs...I hope we see Apple increase their presence in the Open Source community. Jobs' walled garden was one of my chief complaints.

Mine would be having little software available and poor hardware selections (yet at high prices).

Most likely yeah. I guess it depends on how much control they'll leave to Jonathan Ive now that Job's gone, and if they move in another direction. Personally I think it's just a matter of time, especially with Android eating into their iPhone/iPad market share.
