Okay, I will concede that innovate can = invent, but to innovate does not necessarily mean to invent. As indicated in the "to introduce as or as if new" portion of the definition.

I really always looked at innovation more as wikipedia does:

Quote:
Innovation differs from invention in that innovation refers to the use of a better and, as a result, novel idea or method, whereas invention refers more directly to the creation of the idea or method itself. Innovation differs from improvement in that innovation refers to the notion of doing something different (Lat. innovare: "to change") rather than doing the same thing better.
And I am not claiming that iOS is or is not better than andriod.
