>What's with this attitude? How can you be innovative without failing 9 times out of 10.
Easily, by not making PR announcements before you succeed.
Plus, I don't think is an absolute that it's necessary to fail multiple times to get something innovative. Take for example Xerox Park for research. Or, in the market area, Apple.
>The iPhone wasn't new either - as in not a rehash of old ideas. But it was a new execution. These are all new executions.
Well, there are new executions that are ready to succeed, and new executions that are barely held together with chewing gum and wire. I don't think it's any service to the public to tout the latter to high heavens.
