It is too easy to say Apple's P/E ratio is low because of uncertainties due to the loss of Steve Jobs. As far as I can remember back, Apple always had an unusually low P/E. This is not a recent development. It's been like that before Jobs re-jo…

wizard69, I normally really enjoy your posts but I felt your tone was a bit too harsh. I had not attacked you in any way, why are you so aggressive? Are you in a bad mood? If so, that's OK, we all have your bad days... I feel you were genera…

It is possible that Apple merely tries to diversify its suppliers (or move away from potential lawsuit candidates) and hence reduced orders with current suppliers. Also after the Japan earthquake it became obvious that heavy reliance on one regio…

Perhaps some kind of cloud computer. Something that holds all data and applications in the cloud, yet has a real keyboard, can run iOS apps as well as re-compiled Mac apps, but offers a touch screen too. Think MacBook Air with very little loca…

As usual... No one posting dates here knows for sure. And those who know, won't or can't post. But since all iPhone models have been introduced in June so far, it is perhaps a good guess to expect the iPhone 5 to be introduced in the June…

The order of events might not be completely accurate. It was just an example. Point being that any list of hardware features ultimately supported/required by Lion will not be implemented in one update and not even two. The OP will have to wait 3…

Apple no longer seems to release hardware updates with lots of revolutionary new features in one go. They use the evolutionary approach, tiny steps, spreading new features out over several generations rather than blowing them all at once. I thin…

I'm pretty sure that feature is about running Mac OSX remotely. You'll be able to use your iPad/iPod/iPhone to run a Mac OSX session via MobileMe. You can also share that session on a real Mac where it is running as another OS (virtual) thread. …

Jobs reportedly said "the iPad is the most important thing I've ever done". Really think about this. That is a very big statement to make for someone like Steve Jobs. If true, then he really, really wants to give the iPad all the focus it can g…
