From Yahoo...

CUPERTINO, Calif. (AP) -- Apple Inc. said the company's co-founder Steve Jobs died Wednesday. He was 56. "We are deeply saddened to announce that Steve Jobs passed away today," the company said in a brief statement.

"Steve's brilliance, passion and energy were the source of countless innovations that enrich and improve all of our lives. The world is immeasurably better because of Steve."

He was an brilliant human being.

Also, he lived an extraordinarily long life for someone with pancreatic cancer.

It's coincidental that he died during one of Apple's major announcement perioed. I had heard the iPhone 5 announcement was delayed yesterday because he was in hospice, with his demise imminent.

RIP.
