It's pretty simple when you think about it. Apple has a certain hurdle rate for their projects that is extremely high, when compared to other companies. The only projects that can make it are ones that can draw on their existing resources. For them to go into something completely new would aberrate from their investment philosophy that has made them the most valuable company. On the new product front, I have more confidence in Apple knowing that they plan to think things through rather than announce something just for the sake of spending their hard earned cash.
