Can Apple still innovative with Tim Cook?
Mac, iPhone/ Pad, iTunes all under Jobs. Can Apple still take the nessesary risks to innovate, or will we keep seeing the same repackaged technology?

I don't think it's about the risk, it's about having a vision, as overused that sounds. Steve wanted to go somewhere very specific, that's why he was so successful. If you know where you want to go, it's easy to streamline your resources accordingly. If you don't, your efforts will dilute and achieve nothing.
I don't think Apple has this vision at this point. All they seem to do is either naively extrapolating Steve's work (which often leads to really stupid ideas) or following obvious new branches, so that they are usually late in the game (watch, car, tv, music). Many of their products are still great, although I can see how it will slowly go to shit from this point on. A potential breaking point for me will be the announcement of the new MacBook Pros. To me and probably most somewhat professional users this device is the most important one. If they fuck it up, I'll have to find an alternative.
Move to exclusively USB C (MacBook and upcoming MacBook Pro)
Removal of headphone jack in place of Bluetooth (pushes forward wireless headphone/earphone tech)

Just because apple shit on a wristband, doesn't mean they innovated shit.

No. It's over.

Just wait until they have a car. The wires will all be proprietary and the wheels will be square, requiring you to only drive on approved roads without voiding the warranty.

Jobs did hardly any innovation himself, but he was really good at looking at what his guys are working on and saying "yes, this will sell"
Tim seems to be going around and saying "lets just put everything out there and see what will stick"
