To say that Steve Jobs is a visionary is an understatement, and is the least of verbs we could use in his eulogy. Glad to know the ‘visionary’ bit of the late Mr. Jobs has been elevated to cult status for the umpteenth time with word that he has planned out another four years of new products that is said to propel the company forward and perhaps to a certain extent, safeguard its future. It was further revealed that Jobs did fight pretty hard to get plans approved for a spaceship-style company headquarters in California, where this unique headquarters is said to be able to hold up to a dozen thousand employees in a park-like setting that is located near the current base in Cupertino.

How much did he want it? So badly that he appeared at a town council meeting just this June in order to place his plea for the planning go ahead. Apparently, he was also checking out the development of the delayed iCloud project, which if proven worthy of a commercial release, will enable Apple users to stash their collection of music, photos and other documents remotely.

Just what kind of future iDevices do you think Jobs has in store? I guess patience is the only was forward from here on…

iSteve: It was too silly a name to be true. The biography of Apple CEO and founder Steve Jobs, which was initially titled "iSteve," has been renamed "Steve Jobs: A Biography." Which says what it means, but isn't nearly as much fun.

The book will be published by Simon & Schuster in March 2012. Yet there is already so much demand that it hit Amazon's bestseller list in June.

Well, "iSteve" did, anyway, peaking at No. 9 and hovering a few places below. Will the book lose momentum without the cute i-Title that worked for Apple's iPhone and, against all odds, for the iPad?

Probably not. Jobs, 56, has been cooperating with biographer Walter Isaacson on the book. Isaacson has written biographies of genius scientist Albert Einstein ("Einstein: His Life and Universe"), founding father Ben Franklin ("Benjamin Franklin: An American Life") and powerful diplomat Henry Kissinger ("Kissinger: A Biography"). When not writing Jobs' bio, Isaacson, a former executive at Time and CNN, leads the Aspen Institute.

Jobs, who has battled pancreatic cancer and is on leave from Apple, made a surprise appearance in March 2011 during the announcement of the iPad 2.
