Hey, Spotify, meet me at camera 3... Let me give you a hint: It took me all of 12 seconds to find out that 1) Apple has over 200 million iOS devices, and 2) Apple still is really running a break even operation with the music store. Really? Your goa…

I'm not high-finance wiz, but wouldn't a stock split psychologically make Apple's stock feel cheaper and encourage smaller investors to buy it up, and then allow it to rise more? It's a mental glass-ceiling, isn't it? Getting 1 share for $334 toda…

This could be nothing at all, but if the media rolls out their sensational "Is Steve Jobs on death's door?" BS reporting methodology, the stock could tumble 10% or more. People don't sell on fact, they trade on fear. Equally so they buy on hype. …

Just a week or so ago, we had a debate on why Apple would prohibit a newspaper from allowing access to its news through a free app but to only those who paid the newspaper a subscription fee. Apple gets no financial benefit from either the app nor …

Okay, so if everyone thinks it's going to drop and buy on the dip, the perhaps it won't actually drop. I guess it depends on the number of those looking to sell then buy back vs. those who will hold and buy more. I'm looking to pick up a few more …

Isn't this the same model Netflix works on? You pay Netflix for instant streaming then get the Netflix app for free. Each month, Netflix gets their membership fee and Apple gets Zilch. Or is there some other agreement with Netflix? Not making a …

Gee, AT&T gets to flaunt all these other smartphones while Apple's hands are tied until 2011. Seems to me, AT&T's behavior must void some part of the exclusivity agreement. I agree though, AT&T will be fine, considering how many iPhone…

All this and still less than 10% market share in the PC biz and having iPhone tied to exclusive carrier deals in many places. There's a lot more room to grow!

There is another group of people they didn't count. Hold outs who are neither under contract or upgraded their iPhones for a new contract in the hopes that if they hold out a few more months, they'll be able to jump ships without contract/early ter…

Gee, maybe the newspaper publishers will follow suit and get a law passed the requires all iPads be sold with a newspaper subscription. Hey Radio, evolve or die! I get radio on my iPhone already - just about every NPR station steams to the Public …

It this point, I think all bets are off on exclusivity. Of course Apple has planned for the day it jumps to another US carrier, just as it is on multiple carriers overseas. But the kicker is Android. As soon as AT&T started carrying Android p…
