FWIW - the stock price is more about the anticipation around the new iPhone more than anything else. If you watch Apple's stock, it tends to trade on news, like most other stocks.

Actually, as compelling as this sounds at first, it's really an effect of first to market/advertiser impressions... For example... what do you think of when you see... 1. A Bandaid? 2. A Xerox Copy? 3. A Kleenex tissue? 4. A FedE…

I'm actually PROUD of you guys. As nice as Apple's stuff is right now, it doesn't take a marketing genius to figure out that trying to sell a consumer a $199 phone or a $499 iPad is a completely different animal compared to a $999+ HDTV. …

At this point, the entire case is pretty moot... I mean really... look at the two devices now... the iPhone 4S versus the Galaxy 3... between the two OSs and the actual phone... only an idiot wouldn't be able to tell them apart. Honestly, yo…

Personally, I'm pulling for Microsoft 8 to be successful. Apple needs competition. It didn't create the iPhone or iPad because it had nothing better to do. And per the MSFT haters... need I remind you guys... one …

Hop in the wayback machine to 2007 when the iPhone came out. It hardly made a dent in the mobile sphere and it wasn't until the 3G that it took off. Here we are 5 years later. And Success! Agreed! But if I put an iPhone in your hands in 2006…

So how about spending a little of that $150B on a truly remarkable/stable iOS6? Maybe one that doesn't crash or freeze up? Or one that tells me that the app I just bought doesn't work with my older iTouch or iPhone? I know it's fun to be…

It's a bit of an Apples to Oranges comparison. Playing Infinity Blade is NOT Gears of War. For example: 1. No campaign - it's the same screen over and over and over again with IB. Slash the monster/creatures. Slash more of them later. 2.…

"Apple's 2012 profits forecast to be highest of any public company ever" And the lowest in charitable giving - ever...

You guys are missing the point... put it this way... 1. USAGE TYPE You travel, have kids, play some games, read books, watch movies, listen to music - the average tablet user right? You walk into an Apple store and the price you see …
-
FWIW - take this assessment with a grain of salt... a couple of things to consider... 1. When's the last time you SAW an ad (TV/Web/etc) for an iPad and the Kindle Fire 2. Apple LOST marketshare to Amazon video in ONE YEAR (2010 - Apple ha…

Putting aside the "they're too poor to pay any attention to" mentality... What poorer consumers lack in money, they tend to make up more in volume. Seriously, if the iPhone was sold in America at it's retail price of $499-$899... would you…

Although I love stats as much as the next guy - Q2 is going to be the REAL tale about mobile marketshare. Although I am surrounded by Apple products (heck I outfitted my entire design office with G5 Towers once upon a time)... I got the Windows Ph…

FWIW - As a MacAddict but also Nokia Lumia 900 owner... laughing, it's funny how you poor fanboys are all up in arms over this...

FWIW - 7.85" iPad would sell REALLY well. The 10" form factor is still kinda big when traveling. Plus in keeping with price to size, Apple VERY nicely can fit into the $299-$399 segment with this model. Because A LOT of people have a hard…
-
FWIW - this isn't TOO unreasonable. Apple LOVES to over market and overcharge for REALLY common hardware features. Like it's a massive upgrade. Like the memory for an 8GB,16GB, 32GB iPhone really adds the $100+to the costs. Given Appl…
-
FWIW - I am going to ASSUME you guys are more than just fanboys... because none of the comments REALLY speak to how good/great the Nokia Lumia 800 and 900 phones actually are. I've been using the iPhone since 2007, and gone through the last 3 ite…

Come on guys - step away from the Kool-aid stand... Apple's entire original OS was "inspired" by Xerox's UI- everyone knows that. But you don't see Xerox suing Apple today. The "widget" interface, though used by Apple, is pretty much everywhere …
