They must have read that book.
I've heard that Andy Grove is a huge fan of the book. Forbes had a cover with Grove and Christensen and the sentence: "Andy Grove’s big thinker: Clayton Christensen tells how to survive disruptive technologies"

Embedded SSDs. The iPhone and flash iPods have an internal SSD.
