   "The meeting also hinted at tension between Apple’s Siri unit and the marketing division. Walker said the communications team wanted to highlight features like Siri understanding personal context and being able to take action based on what’s currently on a user’s screen — even though they were nowhere near ready."

   Dear god. A company led by its marketing team.

     @paezha @verge @lashman This is a step beyond what happened when I was there, but is 100% in keeping with every failing startup. At one, we had a marketing genius promise a potential manufacturing partner that they would a working unit to test "on Friday" when it was months away from being ready. Shot ourselves in the foot? Torpedoed the darn thing right off.
