These are just snippets, but they give you an idea of what to expect from the fuller book. For example, Jobs said that he was willing to “go thermonuclear war on” Android and its OEM partners. He said that he “will spend my last dying breath if I need to, and I will spend every penny of Apple’s $40 billion in the bank, to right this wrong. I’m going to destroy Android, because it’s a stolen product.”

He said that Hewlett and Packard “built a great company… but now it’s being dismembered and destroyed.” Reflecting back to his side, he continued by saying that he hopes “I’ve left a stronger legacy so that will never happen at Apple.” Similarly, in reflecting on his departure from Apple in the mid-1980s, he said the replacement execs were “corrupt people” with “corrupt values” and they only cared about making money “for themselves… rather than making great products.”

Jobs even comments on his meetings with President Obama, telling him that he’s “headed for a one-term presidency” and that he needed to be more business-friendly. He said that the “regulations and unnecessary costs” make it too difficult to build a factory in the United States, in stark contrast to the relative ease of doing the same in China.

The Steve Jobs biography is available for pre-order now with delivery expected on October 24.

The world mourned when Steve Jobs passed away, a great visionary who brought the iPhone, iPad, Mac computer and other Apple products to the world of technology. He transformed the very lives of every user who touched an Apple product, and the markets; many of which he created. Recently, many have become interested in Jobs’ private life which he had kept away from the mainstream media for so long.

Jobs’ authorized biography which was written by Walter Isaacson has yet to be rolled out to the market, but Sony Pictures of all companies, has made a deal with Isaacson and his publishers; according to Deadline.com. Sony will give $3 million if the movie will push through and a guaranteed $1 million if the movie does not materialize.

Jobs’ biography was originally going to be released on March 2012 but the schedule was moved earlier to November 21. Simon & Schuster will be publishing the book later this month and the book will include Steve Jobs’ final interview.

Some of the movies created by Sony are “The Social Network” and “Moneyball” which gave Sony the best track record for making excellent movies out of real-life business stories. Other not so great releases like 2012 have done very little for anyone. Jobs’ life will be well translated into a film if the company can secure Aaron Sorkin, the person behind the two previous successful films.
