This article isn't just a love letter to Apple, this is full frontal iPad 2 porn.

The way anything is successful in digital distribution is to price it inexpensively and go for bulk. If you ignore this you have a bad strategy and are inviting failure. People will not pay an equivalent price for something digital as they would…

I expected the next headline from Appleinsider after this one would be "Phil Schiller's Twitter account closed by Apple"

reposting this here instead since the other thread seems to have devolved into a trollbait flamewar. Just got back from the Willow Bend mall near Plano TX. At least several hundred people waiting in line at the Apple Store there, it was 5:30 and …

It would seem that, at least in the Plano/Dallas TX area, Apple has completely sold through its entire alotment of iPad2's Friday night. At this point their ability to sell iPads now seems to only be constrained by supply. When I was at the Appl…

Something else to note about the big box stores if you're thinking about trying to get an iPad 2 there: Apple is only giving each of these locations 10 units, and the 10 units they get are all 64GB (probably all 3g models at that). So if you're …

Just got back from the Willow Bend mall near Plano TX. At least several hundred people waiting in line at the Apple Store there, it was 5:30 and the line wrapped most of the length of the mall itself. I would say it was at least 500 people waiting…

It's really time for Apple to retire the vanilla Macbook. If $1000 is the best that can be done with it, I really don't think it has a place in the lineup anymore. Eliminate it and direct people to getting MBA's instead.

So assume average 20 salespeople per store. 1100 stores * 20 per store * $500 average price per iPad = $11 mill cost (tops) to Apple. Probably some of the best $11 mill they could spend evangelizing the product.

Did I just read that a high ranking Samsung executive used "Inadequate" and "Galaxy Tab" in the same sentence? This is either a horrible verbal gaffe or some Engrish mangled misinterpretation. Regardless, any executive of a company should real…

Wow actually I hadn't considered this, but if the iPad 2's mini-display port is actually a LightPeak port instead, that could help drive adoption of the standard much faster than including it on MBP would. If LightPeak also does video and the iPa…
