With Jobs: Decent products miraculous transformed via hype.

Without Job: Decent products accepted for what they are.
Unless Apple's success was due solely to Hype they'll do fine. iPhone is stil a monster cash cow.
Besides, maybe they're saving their hype for the October intro of the baby unicorn. Maybe they split the intro because they didn't want the unicorn hype to overshadow the cash cow.
The stock market certainly didn't feel *too* let down, the way the bid the stock up some more...
