I absolutely agree with (1). In fact - now that I think of it - it's probably why products like SuperDuper still sell well after Apple introduced Time Machine.
And that perhaps suggests a corollary: 3. Build something that the other company will never build (even if they could).
E.g: Apple will never make blogging software/a powerful, dedicated feed reader. It's not in their DNA to do such things.
