The iPod touch was discontinued in 2022 after 15 years on the market and 12 years after Tony Fadell, former Apple iPod VP, left the company. So, it may surprise anyone to hear that a report from a publication charging hundreds for the privilege of reading that Tony Fadell is a potential Cook successor.
According to a report from The Information seen by 9to5Mac, Fadell has personally tossed his name into the ring of potential choices. Of course, the report immediately dismisses the idea, suggesting that “people close to Apple” don’t see Fadell as a likely candidate.
