Jobs on a roll, drops three more emails; expect universal iPhone mailbox
Okay, who hasn't gotten an email from Steve Jobs this week? Yesterday we reported on an email Steve sent to a user regarding Google's Picasa. Also, a MacRumors reader emailed Jobs yesterday about his concern that Apple is putting all its efforts behind the iPad and losing vision in the MacBook and MacBook Pro department. Jobs reportedly replied with an email that said, "Not to worry." But Jobs wasn't done with his emailing that day. Late last night, a TUAW reader sent us an email that was reportedly from Jobs. The reader asked if there was a way he could transfer his Google Docs to his iPad through iWork.com or iDisk. Jobs' reply? "Yes."
The fourth email is perhaps the most welcome one. Reader Julio R. asked Steve if we can expect a universal mailbox on the iPhone. His answer? "Yep."
The emails are short and sweet, but as the TUAW reader who sent us the email about MacBooks pointed out, "When a CEO personally responds to a consumer, you know you're getting the best service on the planet." It should be noted that while the Picasa email was sent from Steve's iPhone running OS 3.1.2, the Google Docs and universal mailbox emails were sent from his iPad.

I can't wait until the next keynote when he debunks these fake emails.

Si le pudiese hacer una pregunta a Steve, le preguntarÃa qué se tiene que hacer para poderle contestar a un cliente con tan solo una frase en un e-mail. A mà me resulta imposible. Por favor que edite un tutorial para enseñarnos a no complicarnos la vida.
Ojalá la gente se conformase normalmente con un "si".
Pero el tipo es genial.
....isn't it funny, a ship that leaks from the top?

Obama says no problem in irak
I was the one who asked Steve about iWork.com working with the iPad, and the one who said "When a CEO personally responds to a consumer, you know you're getting the best service on the planet."
But I was not the one who wrote the MacBook Pro email as the article said.
That's one of the best pictures of Steve Jobs there is, by the way. He looks like he's doing a Robert De Niro impression.

Didn't Steve say typing on the iPad was a 'joy' or something like that? If it is so pleasurable to type on that thing then why is he sending 1 word emails?
I guess you could take this as a sign that he is insanely busy right now or maybe this is a bad omen for iPad enthusiasts.
"The reader asked if there was a way he could transfer his Google Docs to his iPad through iWork.com or iDisk."
No, that's not what's in the email.
Robert stated "I'm moving _away_ from Google Docs..." and he asked Steve if using iWork will give him what he wants via Apple cloud services.
