    I'm not an expert on stocks but it seems like grey area to use inside information about Apple's new products to buy Sharp shares.

    Is TV going down in favor of iPad? Or am I just a tiny minority here?



    You're probably a tiny minority, but I'm with you on not using a TV for any content. Been six years here without a TV. 


     


    For me, a TV seems like a total time-well that people pour their life down into. 


     


    On topic: I am in favor of Apple pulling away from Samsung as a component source. Apple's their biggest customer of some components and, as such, is subsidizing the production of similar or same components for Samsung-branded competitive products. Besides touch/display screens, Samsung is a huge provider of SSD memory. Apple acquisition of the Israeli company looks to me as a way of differentiating Apple SSD memory from others. It may lead to independence from Samsung, but that's less clear.
