He made fun of the idea of putting a color screen on the iPod and a year or so later presented the iPod color.
Of course apple was gonna put a stylus on the iPad, with or without Jobs.
Apple might be content with asking users to buy third party hardware to draw on Mac, but they aren’t stupid enough to say you need to buy a Citrix to draw on your iPad.
It needs to die for a more important reason: Jobs was specifically referring to devices which required a stylus because fingers wouldn’t work as well on their resistive touchscreens.
I’m not sure you actually mean Citrix for that example, but I actually have a mouse somewhere for iPad from when I was working for Citrix and they built an iPad mouse that works with virtualised apps. I think Apple are even adding official mouse support to iPad OS now too.
