Buying back shares increases the earnings per share which will increase the value of the shares. Plus it saves Apple paying the dividend on those shares.

Interesting that Apple hit the revenue and EPS estimates while "missing" the analysts numbers for the iPhone. Makes you wonder how the analysts overall numbers could have made any sense - had Apple sold the analyst estimated 56 million iPhones, the…

Trade dress claims are not about any one thing like shape - in fact they ignore size as well. A trade dress claim is an "and" claim, not an "or" claim. In this case, Apples trademark is: A rectangular mobile digital device with rounded corners AND…

I'm not seeing how this changes anything ... Motorola Mobility owned patents that Apple/RIM/Nokia/MS would either have to license or litigate against. Now Google bought MM - it's not like Google invented something and patented it, these are exist…
