Kuo also predicts a significant decline in iPhone sales by what was it, 75/80 million? 

Here is my personal prediction: within 6 months Kuo will lose his often-cited title as "the most accurate predictor of Apple in the world."

AI can we please start a new feature called analysts scorecard, which tracks in a very simple and easy-to-read way, what each major analyst predicts vs what actually happened. I personally think that would become a hugely popular feature on this site. 

Heck we we cold even invent a new kind of fantasy football of Apple predictions: pick your dream team of analysts/charlatans.

Reports coming out of Korea that the replacement phones are overheating, but not exploding...yet.

I also read that the battery life on the numerous replacement phones is unusually short. 

Analysts seem like they are all over the place while trying to predict the success, or failure, of the new iPhones. 

Here is an idea. AI should keep a running scorecard of analysts' predictions and accuracy. 

Maybe be each analyst gets a score. Like, this flaky one is a 2.6. That accurate one is a 7.4... 

It would be fun and revealing to judge them over time.

just a thought. Probably it's too much work to maintain such an index. Or maybe it exists already?

They only got hissing? They couldn't master the crackling feature like Samsung?
