    Thank you, Tim Cook, for not being able to build a decent supply chain of Apple products. The news media is having a field day and Wall Street believes every word of it. Samsung can supply tens of millions of its smartphones to consumers without a sweat, but Apple struggles. With loss of innovation and a poor supply chain, there's only one direction for Apple to go and that's down.


     


    I have highlighted the words that just complete friction and no factual evidence to support.One product and he is bad at supply chain, when he is recognised by the industry for his supply chain management and well documented concerning Tim's  sweeping changes in Apple to improve profitability by making supply chain more efficient. How does the issues of manufacturing the product relates to loss of innovation????????? 


     


    This is the full meaning of a Troll:


     


    In Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts inflammatory,[3] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as a forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking readers into an emotional response[4] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.[5]  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troll_(Internet)


     


    Highlighted the word, why I called him a troll, so my comment stands!


     


    Lastly, thanks for the colourful language at the end, thats where our discussion stops and you on ignore.bye

    Unfortunately what we know as fact is not well known by the general public. So perception is that Apple has a problem with supply and the current stock price reflects that.

    I agree, but this person has stated by ClemyNX  has been longer in forum, then me, so he should know better. I provided an appleinsider  link above (apologies after you posted this reply) that discusses Tim's strengths in supply chain management.

    The fact is the iphone 5 has been praised by every reviewer on the internet, it defeated the samsung s3 on cnet prize fight and won several awards from some of the most prestigious reviewers included Walt Mossberg. Look the iphone just works, you turn it on and it works, you turn on the samsung s3 and it doesnt work.


     


    Foxconn needs to hire more workers and start pumping more iphones through the pipeline. It's only a matter of time and people shouldnt be worried about ip5s arriving for the holiday season. Just be patient.

    What I mean is that the iphone 5 just works in terms of functionality and reliability while the gs3 which has sold millions has an os that is unreliable. Thats the problem with an open system, you allow yourself to be attacked with malware, viruses, and other issues. It just isn't as stable as iOS. Its good to have reassurance that if you turn on the ip5, you wont experience the kind of issues that plague millions of Android users on a daily basis.

    I would not have quoted the Cnet prizefight, since it was very very close the  result and reviewers heaped praise on Samsung SIII. 


     


    see prizefight link http://cnettv.cnet.com/apple-iphone-5-vs-samsung-galaxy-s3/9742-1_53-50131947.html


     


    Final score iPhone 5   4.73 and Samsung SIII 4.66 and after normal 5 rounds it was a tie and there went back on scores to 0.01 intervals to decide the winner.


    Your comments about SIII  imply that it is vastly inferior to iPhone 5, which is not true.


     


    My personal choice is iPhone 5 because of built quality and developed ECOSYSTEM, but if Apple did not manufacture a phone, I would be hard pressed not to buy S III.

    I wouldn't say the ip5 is vasty superior to the S3, I'm just staying there are aspects of the ip5 that could potentially save your life.


     


    For instance just to be hypothetical here which are real world scenarios too but if your trapped in a corner and an axe wielding maniac is running after you and you needed a phone to get you of a life threatening situation, 9/10 your going to choose the iPhone 5 to dial 911 or access the internet without worry of crashing.


     


    Or another scenario if your driving and your brakes stop working and your about to go over a cliff, and need a phone to get you out of a critical situation, most people will probably choose the iPhone 5 for security and reliability over the S3. 


     


    People are going to want a device that "just works" over a device such as the s3 which does basic things right but in moments where we are faced with life threatening situations, people just want reassurance that they chose a device that saved their life.

    I am not sure if you are serious or just being sarcastic...I hope you are being sarcastic, since in all those situation, what type of phone you have will be last thought on your mind!

    I wasn't saying that he knew better. I was just saying that you responded to his post by calling him a troll. That's a bit easy. Your second answer is much more interesting.


    Sorry for insulting you.

    Lol don't be silly. It's not like people who own a GS3 can't make a phone call. My Android didn't crash more often than my iPhone 5, and the iPhone 5 crashes sometimes. But it had more lag. That and lack of really nice apps is still the main difference between Android and iOS for me.
