Apple CEO Tim Cook does not mince his words in a Bloomberg post-iPhone 5S/C launch interview-- asked on the current state of the mobile industry, Cook at one point remarks "everybody is trying to adopt Apple’s strategy."
"It wasn’t that long ago that people thought it was an absolutely ludicrous strategy to try to do hardware and software... They thought it was crazy," he continues before pointing out the Windows/Intel model of hardware making has, by now, "ran its course."
One has to admit Cook makes a very interesting point. After all, why else would Google buy Motorola Mobility, or Microsoft acquire Nokia? The two companies might insist everything is hunky dory when it comes to hardware partners, but one cannot deny the advantages of being able to finely mesh hardware and software design together-- or believe OEMs are truly happy with the current situation.
In further talk on the mobile market Cook states the mobile market is "even more a two-operating-system world," if one where Android faces the "growing problem" of fragmentation. Cook considers the various Android variants (such as what Android or Samsung do with the software) as separate operating systems-- a piece of mathematics allowing him to declare "more people [are] using iOS 6 than there is any version of Android" before iOS 7 grows into the most popular OS around.
The IPS display handles 2380x960 resolutions, and according to LG the unusual design provides "optimum readability" through an aspect ratio identical to that of A4 paper and most textbooks.
Further specifications include a 234ppi 1440x900 display, 16GB internal storage (expandable via microSD) and a battery promising up to 9 hours of use.

Since the first Intel platforms able to run DDR4 RAM (Haswell-E) is still under wraps the G.Skill demo was static, meaning it did not actually involve functioning modules.
