You can always buy some short term protective puts
yeah you mean stop-loss strategies? 8)
problem is, i don't got no apple stock \ just speculating, like this merril lynch guy that's trying to drive up the stock price he's been reading too much appleinsider
and realising the merril lynch guy was talking out his a** the stock price eases off $90 but since this so called Sony iPod-killer is at this stage, well, vaporware, stock holds above $85
even more vaporware (at this stage): easy-to-use Sony software it'll take them a bit to catch up to OS X and iTunes-level of ease-of-use

Japan's Sony to take on iPod

TOKYO (AFP) - Sony, which 25 years ago changed the way
the world listened to music with the Walkman, said it
would release a product by the end of the year in
hopes of dethroning Apple's hot-selling iPod.
"We are confident of being able to offer by the end of
the year a product that is much more competitive than
the iPod," Sony president Kunitake Ando said.
Ando said Apple's success was in developing a product
that is simple to use.
"We have to develop software that makes use of our
products more intuitive and simple," he told
reporters.
Apple jumped back into profit through the iPod, which
allows users to carry a song library in their pocket
and which hit the stores in October 2001.
It was a continuation of the revolution launched in
1979 by Sony, which created a new culture of portable
music with the Walkman.
Ando dismissed rumors of Sony buying Apple, saying it
"has become too expensive because of the success of
iPod."
"We have put in place a very aggressive plan to become
number one again" in portable music, said Nobuyuki
Idei, Sony chairman and chief executive officer.
