iPod Inspiration

Steve Jobs, who received a Walkman from the Sony head, Akio Morita, himself, chose to dissect it piece by piece, understanding the machinery behind it. Twenty years later he debuted the iPod, his own version of the portable music player, which had a hard-disk at that time.

The late Apple CEOs Walkman dream was realized when from 2001 till 2007 (when iPhone merged the music player with the phone) he could see his trademark white earbuds in the streets and his digital music players selling in millions.
