John Browett and Scott Forstall leaving Apple

John Browett, Apple’s head of its retail stores division is out. Tim Cook will take over the position until a replacement is found.
Additionally, Scott Forstall, head of Apple’s iOS division will be leaving the company next year.
Craig Federighi is taking over Forstall’s iOS position, and he will also lead the OS X division. Senior Vice President of Internet Services Eddy “the fixer” Cue will take over Siri and Maps, as both products are now falling in the same group as the iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and iCloud. Cue famously took over the MobileMe group after the recent debacle, and he successfully led the group through its iCloud transition.
