The more I watch AllThingsD the more annoyed I am with Kara Swisher. Anyone else feel like her questions are terrible?

That being said - overall nice interview and great to see Tim on stage. He is great at what he does and is the perfect voice for Apple.

Nowhere near as charismatic as Steve Jobs. :(

It's true. Steve's responses were always so fascinating, controversial, and engaging.

There's nothing wrong with Tim per se, but he's right: you can't make another Steve Jobs. He was one of a kind.

Kara is an OK journalist, but a horrible interviewer. Her questions and general attitude toward the interviewees is always obnoxious. If you go back and watch the interviews with Steve, it is very clear that he was regularly annoyed at her.

I think Tim was fine. You don't have to be the world's greatest, most charismatic public speaker to run a great company and make good products. People are going to have to get over drawing comparisons of Steve and Tim.
