Steven Levy recalls Apple's October 2001 launch of the iPod, which Steve Jobs told him would be 'a landmark product,' and traces its gradual discontinuation through 2014, 2017 and 2022 as the iPhone absorbed its functions.

Marking 15 years since Steve Jobs died on October 5, 2011, a retrospective recalls his influence on technology and retail.

The piece also notes Jobs later used the phrase 'We love our users' during the 2010 'antennagate' press conference.
According to the report, Apple hardware chief John Ternus is engaging closely with the company's design lab in a manner reminiscent of Steve Jobs' tight collaboration with Jony Ive.
