Hewlett-Packard: Let's Think About Financing Assets
Apple's iPhone: Home Court Advantage
Apple will sell for $90 in January. Mark my words. Not a single soul is going to buy iphone for $545 in India. You get better phones almost free in India. And, there will be cheap iphone clones popping up everywhere in India and China soon. In Europe itself iphones are not selling and carriers are slashing prices. Asia will be a colossal failure.
Amid iPhone's International Rollout, 10 Million Units Isn't a Stretch

iPhones Sell Themselves in Everyday Tasks
Apple is making products with approaches that are considered useless by the world. Then it hypes with people like the author of this article to boost its stock price. One example of discarded idea is the touch interface (They have lawsuits for even that because they copy). Making PCs without expansion slot is another discarded idea. The latest I heard is that they are workin on tablet PC which was introduced by Microsoft 15 yrs back.
iPhones Sell Themselves in Everyday Tasks
Contrary to what the author says, WSJ carried out an article saying that the touch interface is hard and error prone for typing. iphone is a toy. You can listen to songs, check wheather, make calls etc. When it comes to browsing or typing letters, it sucks big time.
Apple’s Momentum Will Continue
Piper Jaffray Sees Repetition of Apple's Historical Holiday Boom
Cisco Sell-off Puts Apple at a Discount
270K iphones sold in US verses 10000 sold in Germany gives 270/10 = 27. Even if we assume 20K phones sold during the entire weekend 270K/20K = 13.5
Where is 3.6 and where is 13.5?
And for this, you call the other person an idiot and lunatic. Then what are you? Ha Ha!!!!
Cisco Sell-off Puts Apple at a Discount
Cell phone market is very tough. Apple is charging $400 in US and around $580 in Europe for phones whereas other players throw away their phones almost free. If Apple cannot gain more than 3% marketshare in its core business, how do you expect it to grow market share against Nokia, Motorola, Ericsson who are in the business for 20+ yrs? Cellphone market is not MP3 player market. There are very very strong gorillas in the cell phone market. And don't forget Google is coming out with mobile OS and change the game towards further cheaper phones.
Regarding the press, loyal following - have seen it and know how it all ends. Remember Exodus? Remember JDSU? They had more press than Apple.
