SanDisk CEO Takes Hat Off To Apple

CEO of Sandisk, Eli Harari, has finally thrown in the towel (so to speak) by admitting that Apple has dominated the portable media player (PMP) market in the US in a way that anything else released would automatically be relegated to niche status. For this statement to come from the world’s number two PMP manufacturer goes a long way in cementing Apple’s sheer dominance. Do you think this trend will continue for years to come, or will Apple suffer the fate of American automobile manufacturers who once thought they had cornered the market only to be met by Japanese (and now Korean) makers that leapfrogged them to the top of the pile? If so, which is the best company to usurp Apple?
