good morning. steve jobs the technology genius who became a digital visionary. apple's a fight he used to inspire his life and his work has died. >> remembering that i'll be dead soon is the most important tool i've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. >> his choices created everything from macs and iphones and the way we relate to each other. the digital message spread around the world to presidents and ceos to those who love what he created.

>> it's sad but i think he would be pleased to see this store tonight and see all of the products he helped create. >> reporter: the legacy of steve jobs and apple's future without him "early" october 6th, 2011. captioning funded by cbs good morning. i'm erica hill. what you're looking at right there is actually our neighbor here at "the early show." the apple store. that has not stopped people from coming by and turning this into a memorial for steve jobs. it's open 24 hours so always a steady stream of people but today they came bearing more than their apple gadgets. >> exactly. i'm chris wragge. when i pulled up this morning along the side with construction there was some graffiti i love you, steve, and spray painted on there. people are leaving their mark leaving flowers and lighting

candles. the one phrase we have heard over and over since the death of steve jobs announced he changed the world. >> hard to find anyone who would disagree with that. we begin our coverage with john blackstone who is outside apple's headquarters in cupertino, california this morning. john, good morning. >> good morning. >> reporter: here at apple's headquarters the flags have been lowered to half-staff and people coming here to his nearby home and palo alto to leave flowers and condolences. while steve jobs touched people around the world here in silicon valley it's personal. people have been stopping by here and began gathering here soon after his death was announced. . piper played just outside apple's headquarters as add mirmirers left messages of condolences. somehow steve jobs knew how to

create products we just couldn't resist. >> light tunnel is really great when you want to sort of play god here. >> reporter: the macintosh was the first and the iphone changed our idea of what a cell phone should do. >> iphone is like having your life in your pocket. it's the ultimate digital device. >> reporter: the ipad was made tablet computers the next big thing. >> it's so much more intimate than a laptop. >> reporter: even as the public face of apple, jobs was extremely protective of his privacy but in a 2005 commencement speech at stanford university, he spoke revealing of his early life and his birth in 1955. >> my biological gorgemother was a young unwed graduate student and decided to put me up for adoption. >> reporter: he grew up in silicon valley and starting apple in his parents' garage in

1976. by 1981 long before most people had even touched a personal computer a bearded steve jobs told cbs news he was certain computers would become an essential part of our lives. >> it's not going to happen at once. it's just going to be very gradual and very human and seduce you into learning how to use it. >> reporter: with product after product, jobs did seduce millions into buying apple's stylish devices. in 2009 after a six-month medical leave from apple, jobs returned and uncharacteristically, spoke directly about his health. >> five months ago, i had a liver transplant. so i'm vertical. i'm back at apple. loving every day of it. >> reporter: but more health problems followed. in january this year, he took another medical leave. but then showed up at an apple conference in june. >> and thank you very much. >> reporter: in august he announced he was stepping down as ceo, saying he was no longer

able to continue. late yesterday, apple's website simply put up jobs' picture. in a statement, apple said the world is emmeasurably better because of steve. steve jobs was famously private and secretive, but through the products he created, millions around the world came to feel they know him. erica, chris? >> john blackstone at apple's headquarters, thanks. that graduation speech at stanford that john referred to has been viewed now more than 5 million times on youtube. jobs gave the speech less than a year after revealing he was being treated for cancer. >> we want to show you more of that speech in which job addresses his mortality in typical head-on fashion. >> remembering that i'll be dead soon is the most important tool i've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life because almost everything all external expectations all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure, these things just

fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. remembering that you are going to die is the best way i know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. you are already naked. there is no reason not to follow your heart. >> so much in that speech so inspiring, and just incredible to listen to. really tough to think of any company probably in the last 50 years that has put out more life-changing products than apple. >> steve jobs created or directed nearly all of those products. >> probably the one thing more important than the technology steve jobs created is the impact he's had on our culture. >> we are introducing the third industry milestone product, macintosh. >> reporter: it was january 1984 when a young steve jobs introduced the macintosh computer to apple shareholders

promising them that this plastic box would change the world and our lives. >> but its radical ease of use, mouse, windows, icons. >> reporter: going beyond a keyboard it was the first computer to popularize the mouse, changing the way humans would interact with and manipulate machines forever. >> today, apple is going to reinvent the phone. >> reporter: fast forward two decades to 2007 and jobs did it again. >> and we are calling it iphone. >> reporter: but this time instead of an external device. >> who wants a stylus? you have to get them and put them away you lose them. yuck! >> reporter: the iphone did it by touch. >> which is phenomenal. >> reporter: today, we expect to control our devices by touch. but beyond digital communications he affected popular culture. ♪ >> reporter: with the release of the bondy blue imac in 1998 apple was the first to show

style. >> i'm a mac. >> i'm a pc. >> reporter: apple became synonymous with cool. ♪ >> reporter: the ipod in and its white earbuds changed the way we listen to music and how we look instantly becoming a must-have accessory. >> this is what we believe. technology alone is not enough. >> reporter: the ipad tablet gave us something we didn't even know we wanted and that now some couldn't imagine doing without. >> i would say three of us go to bed every night, my wife myself and the bed. she's on it ♪ when you're smiling ♪ >> you look at the iphone 4 and it's face time and i chat and can bring people together no matter where they are in the world and probably the greatest thing he ever did. >> reporter: two days ago, after already having passed the torch because of his illness apple had the first release after he will left.

he had let go of his kroichltceo. he died. he was 56 years old. one more information. pixar animation studio, pixar the first to use computers that would seem real and connect with viewers and bringing the power of computers to story telling. >> wilson thank you. when steve jobs first set out on this journey who change we use computers and our lives, steve wozniak was right by his side. the co-founder of apple joins us this morning. good to have you with us and our condolences. >> good to be here. a sad day. >> it is a sad day. in and honesty the two of you will be forever linked for finding apple with the two pranks you two used in high school. one memory of your time with steve jobs that stuck out to you or popped in your head? >> no. when i heard the news my mind went blank like i had been

clobbered with a hammer. i didn't expect it more than anyone else. overnight, really a lot of the terms, things that we did together, how important they were. the way that steve thought and he talked and, you know, his leadership from the early days and the way he founded things, you know it's like my head is swirling in it. >> reporter: take us back to those early days. what was it like? the two of you, you know, interested in a lot of the same things. you have this great energy this great curiosity and, ultimately you end up with your company changing fundamentally the way we all do things across this world. what did you, though, set out to do when the two of you created apple? >> it was actually an unbelievableably fortunate partnership, but it spoke a lot of life and the passion for life and the energy to do things. steve and i used to most days talk about where life was going for people what was important,

what was right and what was good, and where did things like government field fit in and companies and great thinking and those ideas. my role was the key technologies, the scientist, the engineering building all of these devices one after another after another and steve was spotting them and seeing ways to sell them and talking about where they could go and talking about enhancements and improvements that would take it to the next level. he was always trying to move to the next level, to the next level, the next level and almost pushed by high anxiety and i was sitting there designing the things i wanted for myself and it was so wonderful. and we did all of the things that young people do misbehavior, playing around pranks, talking about ideas that we -- featured we could put into products, that sort of thing. he was just -- but over time really after i stayed in the background, i didn't want to run a company, steve really excelled like the most incredible person

and business person and technology person in the world and almost no one could really bring the products that home run after home run after home run and that bout him the credibility that when steve introduced something, there were millions of people that would buy it that instant because they trusted it. you know, it's just hard that a person could have ever gotten to that position and i know it's so sad for all of us because now we worry are we going to miss what that would have brought us in our future. >> as you spoke with him over the last few months i know you saw him at the ipad ii launch. he was obviously struggling with his health a long time. he seemed a person that liked to control things whether his company, whether his launch. how difficult do you think it was for him he could not control this illness that was slowly taking so much away from him? >> steve spoke to me of the illness more recently than a few months ago as something that

really did bother him, that he did not like the fact that he had been close to death, and sort of survived. it kind of surprised me because, in a bit, he's got a logical mind that understands, you know, as he is quoted of saying that death is really an affirmation of life and it's part of the circle and, you know, once you have a healthy thinking like that, you aren't necessarily bothered, but he spoke like he was very bothered by it and i don't try to delve into people's personal lives, so i didn't ask deep questions. >> we appreciate you sharing some of your memories and some of your thoughts with us this morning. our kol donnencescondolences on your loss as well. >> thank you for that. >> the moment steve jobs' death erupted twitter erupted with emotional reaction. thank you, steve. even i said was topics within hours. molly wood is following reaction

from well-known people sharing thoughts on his legacy. good morning molly. >> good morning, chris. >> what type of activity did you see on facebook and twitter during the hours after his death? >> it was remarkable. the trending topics had dominated twitter within an hour. twitter actually crashed for several hours over the course of the evening. it was sort of slow where twitter has not released specific numbers yet but we are expecting this may be a record number of tweets as people just went to pour out their feelings their emotions really. everyone from politicians to celebrities to competitors to normal people. >> let's talk about the president. what did he have to say? >> of course president obama tweeted that steve jobs changed the way each of us sees the world. >> it also -- bill gates, the chairman 6 microsoft, primary competitor over the years, he was quick to respond as well. >> absolutely.

bill tweeted the world rarely sees someone who made such a profound impact. >> another person who has had a profound impact on the social networking sites, facebook founder mark zuckerberg. >> he said thanks for showing us that what you build can change the world. >> and celebrities were quick to chime in as well. one of the tech aficionados ashton cusperkutcher. >> we have all served on the wake of steve jobs ship. now we must learn to sail but we will not forget our skipper. >> everyday people out there that benefited from steve jobs over the years. what were they saying? >> very heartfelt tweets from normal people. one tweet from tim carmody i'm on my way to philadelphia to see my son to use a device steve jobs invented to hem him talk. he will never know. he will never know. >> molly wood in san francisco for us thank you very much.

>> my pleasure. >> one of the tweets i read was you took the ugly world of technology and made it beautiful. >> that's what he did. he also made it understandable and usable and relatable for so many people. quite a legacy. we are going to continue to take a look at steve jobs. we want to check in with jeff glor for a look at the other headlines we are following you on this thursday morning. >> good morning. sarah palin says she is not running for president because her family comes first. and she believes she doesn't need an office or a title to make a difference. >> not being a candidate, really you're unshackled and you're allowed to be even more active and i look forward helping coordinate the strategies that will assist in replacing our president. >> gabrielle giffords makes a rare appearance in washington today returning a retirement ceremony for her husband

tara bore taraborrelli taraborrelli. two-man company jobs and wozniak is the most valuable in the world. rebecca jarvis is here with a look at how apple grew and it just -- i mean, they aren't words to describe the growth of this company, especially in the last few years. >> especially the last decades, it's exponential. you go back to the first mcintosh computer debuted in january of 1984 this was a little company by comparison to what it is today. $3.50 stock and, all of a sudden, gets fired. a year later 1985 the stock plummets to $1.71. this is after a little internal coup. there were some internal politics taking place in the company. jobs returns to the company in december of 1996. the stock is up $5 stock. all of a sudden, you fast forward five more years the stock goes up to $11 when the power book debuts in january of 2001. then itunes comes along.

we know itunes and becomes synonymous with music and the way americans and people around the world buy their music. apple shares get up to $13.50. the ipod debuts a few weeks later in 2003. $22.50 is the stock. the iphone comes along in 2007. this is where things get really heated. $1 $122 for share of apple. in june of 2007. because of that iphone. then the ipad. $260 is where apple stock goes and then we do have today, obviously, jobs passing $378 for a share of apple stock. you just see the last ten years. because of this man's vision the stock hag exponential. >> talk about a job creator, too. not just at apple. the entire landscape as a whole benefited from his inventions. >> every tech company is

utilizing on some level the apple platform and utilizing the iphone platform and utilizing itunes and they have been able to benefit what he has set in motion. >> he changed so much, not just a business but of the way we live our lives. joining us is andy serwer of "fortune" magazine. you have written about steve jobs and apple and been on the receiving end of his phone calls which could go either way but spoke to the type of businessman and innovator he was. >> he was a computer genius and a micro manager. he liked to control his press. he would reach out to us from time to time and make it clear on where he stood and things. more than that he did change the way we lived our lives. he revolutionized so many businesses, not only computing but also the music business the telephone and movie business with pixar and retailing with the stores and advertising and

management, meetings. think about his presentations. we are seeing one right here. you know, this was something that never had been done before but mostly he brought technology to the people to consumers before technology used to be something in black boxes and, you know, mainframe computers and boring desktops and now it's a revolution. >> the amazing thing is to launch an idea like this and in the subsequent days to have that idea all over the world and working. i think for the laymen you think of the ideas and some of the technology and you wonder how in the world could human beings accomplish this? and that is what he was able to do. >> an amazing execution. you're right, chris, to be able to have a company that size and keep a product secret, announce it and then have it all over the country in one day like that available and working seamlessly. all of these products introduced and connected to the itunes store, for instance the software working without a flaw. tremendous ability of a company to execute on all levels. >> to make you want something that you had no idea you would

ever. i think he said that at one point. we make the products that consumers don't know they even want. >> and to have the jobs stamp of approval. they love steve jobs and apple and it doesn't matter what the competition is. some people will buy something because it came from apple, because it came from steve jobs. he built that whole essence over 30 years. >> i think that is right. to your point, chris, when you were talking about employment jobs, being such an important issue today. all of the jobs at apple but also all of the jobs in terms of at creators one of the hottest jobs and there is not enough people out there doing that right now. if you're interested in setting that kind of thing in school you will get a job out of college, i guarantee you. >> talk about the ceo who did everything. not only the ideas but the visual aspect was that important to him, the look font the different type. you remember when the computers came out the different colors and different color ipods. so many different things he had

his hands on. >> taste was so important, right, rebecca? >> yes. >> the insult to his competitor they have no taste, bad taste. the products had to work without a manual. remember? you had to read a manual to use technology products? no more. now you have apple products and you plug them in and they work. you don't have to read a manual to figure them out. >> incredible. >> impressive stuff. andy, great to have you with us. we're looking at a pretty decent day. we started off with temperatures in the 50s. we'll go to a daytime high around 68 degrees or so. going up to 68 with nice and sunny conditions. 44. clear to partly cloudy. tomorrow going up to around 70 degrees, sunny and pleasant. the next i have no days 80 degrees heading into saturday and

now the latest from the manslaughter trial of michael jackson' doctor. we first heard parts of the recording last week as ben tracy reports, the jury is now getting its full impact. >> and removing what was the iphone. >> reporter: prosecutors say just six weeks before michael jackson died, dr. conrad murray used his iphone to make this audio recording of the pop star. jackson sounds heavily drugged, telling murray his plans to use money from his comeback concerts to build a hospital for children.

after several seconds of silence, murray asked jackson if he is okay. jackson responds. this was michael jackson clearly in need of shinsassistance. clearly under the influence of a tox kant and conrad murray still knowing these things continued to give him these drugs and these intoxicants. >> reporter: murray is accused giving jackson the powerful sedative propofol to help him sleep and ultimately killed jackson. then dileo is concerned about jackson. >> he's sick. i think you need to get a blood test on him. we got to see what he is doing. >> reporter: jurors, once again saw a photo of jackson's dead

body on a gurney as well as the slew of pills and propofol found in the singer's bedroom. ben tracy, cbs news los angeles. joining us is j. randy taraborrelli who knew jackson for 40 years. he has a new book "the magic, the madness, the whole story." you knew michael for almost 40 years. what is your reaction when you hear him in this condition on these recordings? >> it's devastating. i think anybody who knew michael jackson and cared about michael, this is absolutely devastating. i guess there will always be unanswered questions about michael jackson's life and times, but what we now know from this tape is that he really was a man who was tormented by a childhood that, you know, he felt he never had. you know, we have seen this in a lot of celebrities over the years, fame corrupts and it ruins a child's sense of self,

but never more so, i think, than in the case of michael jackson and also what strikes me chris is that while many people over the years may have felt that michael was exaggerating this narrative of a lost childhood for maybe the purposes of publicity or career advancement, i think that we see now that even in this highly intoxicated state, it really was the main focus of his life the pain and the hurt that he felt at not having a childhood. >> you heard his manager frank delio express concerns about his health. did you have concerns about his health and realize he was in as bad a shape as he was the last few weeks? >> i have to say i really did not. what strikes me from this tape is i think that any thinking person, you know, who is a friend of michael's who had heard him in this condition would have immediately rushed this man to a hospital for treatment and i find it very disturbing personally that conrad murray was listening to

michael jackson in this state and instead of, you know throwing him in the back seat of his car and taking him to a hospital, he is tape recording the conversation. i just don't know what to make of that chris. >> i guess has is the one of the big questions that exists. why is he taping these conversations? your thoughts on it. >> well, one of his attorneys last week said that possibly he was taping the conversation so he could later play it back for michael jackson to show him, you know, how bad of shape he was in. but i find that ridiculous. i just -- i just don't think there is any excuse or explanation for taping this conversation. not only that, it's illegal to tape a conversation without the other party knowing about it. but that is beside the point now. i think the bigger question is why didn't he take him immediately to a hospital for treatment? >> were you aware that jackson taking any drugs at the time? did you know? i mean, i know they are talking about his drug history in the past and that is surfacing during this trial, but did you

know he was on any drugs titillate in his life? >> well, you know, michael jackson was managing many different illnesses. the way i looked at it chris, he was doing his best to manage you know, a myriad of problems of health issues. michael jackson never took drugs to get high. michael was being treated by doctors, obviously in this case very, you know poorly treated, to handle, you know a variety of problems of health problems. >> yeah. all right. j. randy taraborrelli thanks for joining us. appreciate it. >> thank you chris. still ahead on "the early show," the latest on the recovery of congresswoman gabrielle give gabrielle giffords as she returns to washington this week. you're watching "the early show" on cbs. and rushes relief to the site of pain. it's clinically proven to relieve pain twice as fast. new bayer advanced aspirin. these are ocean spray sparkling juice drinks. they have bubbles. it's real fruit juice; crisp, sparkling water;

>> reporter: a piper came to play at apple's headquarters and neighbors gathered to remember. >> i'm thinking of this generation. it's a huge loss. >> reporter: in silicon valley fashion, it all began in his parents' job where jobs and steve wozniak co-founded apple in 1976. >> i'm going to remember him as always being very quick mind and almost all the time that we had discussions about how something should be done in a company, he was almost always right. >> reporter: by 1981 we may not have known we needed a personal computer, but a bearded steve jobs did. >> it's not going to happen at once. it's going to be very gradual and very human and will seduce you into learning how to use it. >> reporter: in its early years apple struggled and a board room battle in 1986 jobs was fired from the company he created. but without jobs apple almost became irrelevant. when he returned to the company,

touched on this for us earlier today, people lives were so important to him and the real impact on real life not just on technology was important to him, but how much of that thought process went into all of these products that we got from apple? was it really about changing your everyday existence? >> when you would ask him, you know, how do you do it? how do you come up with something like for instance the ipod that other people tried to do digital music before and apple did it and it worked, he said we just want to make the kind of products that we use for ourselves. we love music in this case. this is how we wanted to listen to music. >> how difficult was it for him in the last few months to have to kind of pull back the reins a little and let tim now take over and really kind of remove himself from this company that he developed when he was 21 years old? >> in his personal life steve was very private. he didn't really want to share that. he didn't want to do a celebrity thing. so i don't know how he must have raged coming to grips with the diagnosis that he had.

but i sensed the last few times i spoke to him that he had come to terms with it. he realized that things important to him were his family and apple and those are the things he concentrated on his last year. >> we saw a lot in the presentations here. when we saw the iphone 4 and the introduction of face time and when we saw things with the ipad. a lot of the focus in terms of the marketing was on this brings you close to your family and full of pickets of kids and music and got you right in your heart. how much of that do you think came from steve jobs and his commitment to his own family? >> i think maybe, you know, somewhere that might have figured in there but that was always something that he wanted to bring across with his products. when he started, the personal computer world was thought of for geeks and hobbyists and he was the guy who said wait a minute, people want this in thas their houses and he made a case for the apple 2 which made it a friendly computer than the ugly boxes that everybody else did. >> he made it cool.

he took the geek out of it. >> you say is apple cool? he would bristle. the cool is trendy. things are built through and through at apple. >> steve, thanks here is jeff glor at the news desk with a check of today's other headlines for us. looks like the republican presidential field may be set and will not include sarah palin. che made that announcement yesterday. whit johnson has more. >> reporter: we knew the decision was coming soon but sarah palin made the dramatic announcement on her own terms, finding ending speculation that has simmered since 2008. never afraid to make haems, the former alaska governor did it again wednesday afternoon. >> i know beyond a shadow of a doubt, that i can be on the right path not as candidate for president at this time. >> reporter: first, on the radio. and on fox news where she's a pate contributor. >> i apologize to those whom are disappointed in this decision. i've been hearing from them in

the last couple of hours. >> reporter: sarah palin supporters rushed to her facebook page. your decision leaves my wife and i devastated. sarah, say it ain't so. while palin certainly has her fans, she would have had her challenges as a candidate. in a cbs news poll out this week, 74% of republican primary voters said they would not like to see her run for president. palin spent much of the summer teasing voters with her multiple campaign style bus tours, often upstaging declared republican candidates. >> i think if she had run, she would have made things really interesting. >> reporter: cbs news political contributor scott conroy has covered palin extensively since she joined the mccain ticket in 2008. >> i spoke to her privately along this bus tour she did a few months ago and sort of asked her what happens if you don't run? what are you going to do then? she said we have a lot going for us back in alaska and we don't know need all of i think is the line she used. >> reporter: palin made millions on her book deals and public

phone at this point? >> she is able to initiate conversation and respond extensively so, yes, you can have conversations with her. >> reporter: a lot of people wondering any talk at this point of when they may return to washington for her job as a congresswoman there? >> we are still ten months from the shooting in january and she's got a long way to go. she is working very hard. they are not focused on that at this point. at this point they are trying to to make her have a full recovery. >> there is also of course a lot going on in washington besides the retirement ceremony for mark kelly and congresswoman giffords time there. a lot of focus on the american people on what is happening, in many cases, what they feel is not happening in congress. as we look at this jobs bill which president obama is about to embark on a bus tour to promote, harry reid talking about the new 5% tax on those households that make a million

plus. is there anything you found in talking with your colleagues on either side of the aisle that you think can bring lawmakers together in washington to find some sort of compromise that will satisfy as close to everyone as you can get? >> well, not if you talk to eric cantor, because that was the most shocking thing that happened this week was that the majority leader eric cantor specifically said that the american jobs act, as propoped by proposed is dead and they won't allow a vote on it up and down and the party is so far apart that actual major reform is not possible. you know, i don't know. i'm not ready to quit on the process. i'm not ready to quit on democracy and i think we need to roll up our sleeves and work together to try to pass the american jobs act and make sure we can put people back in work and invest in the infrastructure and make sure we can keep teachers and first responders on the job and give the average class american a 15 payroll tax

cut. it's hard to understand what the republicans are opposed to on any of those things. >> thank you for joining us. steve jobs fought pancreatic cancer, a brutal disease, for more than seven years. we will take a closer look at that illness and his battle to be cured when "the early show" continues. living with the pain of moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis... ...could mean living with joint damage. help stop the damage before it stops you... ...with humira.

>> neuroendocrine. >> what is the difference between -- >> the microscopic level this is the type of cells in the pancreas that become cancerous. we hear about the typically or common form of pancreatic cancer. it originates. neuroendocrine start in the hormones that make insulin. regardless of what type cell wise the pancreatic cancer is we see classic symptoms with pancreatic cancer and some overlap with symptoms of other cancer. weight loss is a very very common and, obviously significant symptom. there can be a loss of appetite because the pancreas sits in the upper abdomen and because of the hormones it produces like insulin you can see patients with very elevated blood sugar levels and difficulty controlling their blood glucose levels. >> a lot of people pointed to his physical appearance. not only evidence he was fighting something serious but

say it was because of the cancer. you talk about loss of appetite and weight loss but a number other factors in terms of treatment that can contribute to that kind of weight loss? >> absolutely. we don't fully understand why patients battling cancer get that dramatic weight loss. it's actually called cancer kakexia. could be a number of issues at play. you're talking about a tumor that affects the upper degenerative tract and can block the digit digestive process. and cellular level microscope aik microscopically it can be a massive weight loss and this is just the cancer process at work. >> where are we now medically in the fight against this form of cancer? >> two big advances really in pancreatic cancer. one of them had to do with two new drugs to fight

neuroendocrine that was approved last year. we brought you a story last year about a vaccine for pancreatic cancer and exciting research on trials being done out of johns hopkins in maryland where a person's own pancreatic cancer cells are taken out and radio activated and to fight their pancreatic tumor cells. exciting work but, again still a devastating type of cancer. >> dr. ashton, thank you. >> you bet. still ahead, much more on the legacy of steve jobs' legacy at apple and look ahead what the company's future looks like without him. this is "the early show" on cbs. stay with us. has a lens approved for up to 30 days and nights of continuous wear.

about about steve jobs. >> joining us again is wilson tang of c-net and leigh gallagher and bill werde. where does apple go without steve jobs? i know he has relinquished control the past few months. where does the company go? >> this is a change the company has been preparing for a while. tim cook eats sleeps and breathes apple. knows it inside and out. grew up as the operations guy, the back office guy, obviously now in a much bigger role. not only that but, i mean, apple has a pipeline that is several years from now where products will keep coming out with steve jobs' imprint on them. for the immediate future i think things will be okay. >> there was such a connection

there. i mean steve jobs was apple and apple was steve jobs despite the minor break with the company is the way it was. talk this morning even if a fair amount of stuff in the pipeline people are concerned this is the end of innovation. wilson, that seems like a really -- that is sort of a heavy thing to put out there. >> not at all. like one of the best qualities of steve was that he picked amazing creative and innovative team. he realized he didn't know everything. his biggest asset was the taste around the products. and he's already sort of established a strategy with his top managers moving forward and i think that you're going to see the ground pieces for some really innovative products being laid out right now. so in a couple of years we will see some really great things. i have no idea what they are, but i fully anticipate they will still shake up the market. >> there are certain executives and people in the world have a

wow factor. apple products was a great product because steve jobs was bringing them into the world. he has an incredibly amount of talented people and it was unfortunately known this was the kay that would come. it will be interesting to see how they roll these products out. apple used music in an important ray to reinvigorate that company and apple was caught a little flat-footed by the cloud. apple set the market for music downloads and mobile phones and now you're head nothing the cloud space, you have brands like spotaive that have taken a head-start and apple is playing catch-up for the first time. >> a lot of reaction, a lot of people were a little underwhelmed with what they kind of debuted earlier this week. >> at the end of the day it's because people's expectations are so high. this company is consistently the last couple of years and even decades has truly innovated and

changed the market in dramatic ways. when apple doesn't do that and just releases a good product that is a let-down. >> steve has done that. he has raised the bar so high. can this next group of people maintain those expectations? because people are expecting so much now. >> that's a great question. obviously, every single move is going to be hyperparsed and everything is under the big microscope now. almost in an unfair way. but, you know, i think that, i mean apple has already -- what apple has done sets an enormous precedent in business. i mean, it is just revolutioned six, seven, entire industries. >> for the first time apple is sort of caught we have to catch up to this cloud thing that everybody else has going on because, in many ways when jobs came back and not long after, the tag line was think different. he, in many ways really pushed not only companies within the technology space but when it came to advertising and music pushed them to think differently about the way they do business. >> that's right.

he dragged the music business single-handedly into the digital music age and people were not able to figure that out. digital music stores were owned by the major labeling. the pricing and technology was wrong. apple made it very simple and that was really one of the things that steve deserves credit for. >> to that point, it's not that apple doesn't always need to be first. it was never even first in the music market. what it did was it sort of took all of this advanced technology. people talking about digital music before it took off. they said, okay how do i make this simple and make it easy for consumers to access and that is where the beauty of apple comes from. >> and it was first in many things. the beauty of steer jobs he was able to see around corners and see what the consumer would want before the consumer even knew. who would ever think you would need all of your music in your pocket or you would buy songs one at a time and break up the concept of the album? he really kind of did that. he is famous for this. one of the things he said at one point, he said it's not the

consumers job to know what they want. you can look at that maybe hotty. i can tell you what you want but it is absolutely true. i mean, he sort of took us where we needed to go before we even knew we needed to get there. >> is that what everybody else needs to do right now? ask themselves what would steve have thought with every idea that is basically launched. >> we won't know. we won't know. >> he literally brought ideas we didn't know we needed these things until he actually presented them to us. >> ipad it's not like i'm filling a void he said. we are bringing it out because we think it's kind of cool. >> the technology space and a lot of other technology companies have learned from. a spotaify. steve said we make products that consumers want. a lot of technology companies were focused on this is great and cool technology but it's the music fan in the face of music. >> they were focused on

productivity and he made computers and technology a tool in your consumer life. now those things that we have are great. >> that's a really good point, especially with something like the ipad. you did not want to hear anything about how fast the processor was or how much ram was in it or all of these like things that other technology companies market when you go buy a computer from say, dell. it's always about how fast it is, how much storage it has, all of those other things. with apple, it's what can you do with it? how can it enhance your life? how can you do things that you thought were science fiction a couple of years ago? >> that has spent a lot of people to spend a lot of money because they are not cheap and never any sales going on. >> the presentation of the packaging also. >> the design. >> wilson and bill and leigh, thank you for being with us. >> thank you. here is jeff glor at the news desk with a final check of today's other headlines for us. at least 33 people were hurt earlier this morning when a bus crashed in nebraska.
