You're right, but then isn't that all it took for Apple to claw its way back up from the brink of bankruptcy just after they put Steve Jobs back at the helm? It may have been "just a music player", but it was well executed by Apple with iPod, not well executed by Microsoft with Zune. I suspect Nokia is more the Microsoft with Zune these days. :P
