I really have to say, I felt extremely bad reading this. I had no idea his condition was so serious. He was truly one of the world's leaders in the technology industry and it's terrible he passed away so young.

a day after his last work is unleashed.

Such unfortunate timing that a huge business magnate should leave this earth so early in his companies dominance in it's respective markets.

My condolences go out to all his family

He certainly did accomplish a lot, that's for sure.

I'm not sure. I know he's had cancer in the past but I really don't know what's happened now and I don't want to wrongly speculate or guess:

Damn. RIP Steve Jobs! Say what you want about the dude, he pursued his dreams/vision with a focus and intensity most of us will never touch.

Former chief executive and co-founder of US techonlogy giant Apple Steve Jobs has died, the company says. He was 56.
"Steve's brilliance, passion and energy were the source of countless innovations that enrich and improve all of our lives. The world is immeasurably better because of Steve," Apple said.
Jobs announced he was suffering from pancreatic cancer in 2004.
His death came a day after Apple unveiled the new iPhone 4S at its headquarters in California.

The strange thing is so many people will learn about his death using something he created. His work completely defined a generation IMV anyway. Very sad day.
