Jobs' "reality distortion field" was just the conviction in his voice as he spoke. There is no, none, nada, zero conviction in the way Apple deliver these missives. It reeks of corporate America and is therefore not trustworthy.

I'm also kind of surprised that no-one there has altered the format. There are a lot of smart people at Apple...
