It’s really an absorbing interview, and has some great tips for entrepreneurs as well as an inside look at some of Apple’s philosophy.

Also present alongside Fadell is Xavier Niel, who is known for setting up Free, a popular and cheap telecoms company in France and pioneering the idea of ‘box’ for internet, TV and telephone, a concept that has is now very widespread in Europe.
