I pretty much see adoption of technology as innovation. Not technical innovation for sure, but innovation in the sense of significant improvement over other solutions.

Don't you consider the original Mac adoption of the 3.5" floppy drive as innovation?

No, it's forced adoption. You have a houseful of 5.25" and need a new computer and have no options now. That's hardly innovative.
