'Longer Term, Everyone Thinks Apple Is Going Higher'

Two on the show also said "with 9 analysts saying it will go higher, it makes you want to automatically sell." Last year blackberry users were saying they would never sacrifice a thumb-board. Now reviewers are saying they will not go back. It appears to me the game has already been won: software makers of all sizes are full steam ahead on producing programs for the iPhone. 2 years of profits form AT&T contracts are not even figured in yet and were double the reported profits. 5 times as many sales over the prior year, and the new device and lower prices were only in the last 2 weeks.

If any non-techie wants a good, simple pocket computer, this is it. they will choose iPhone.

People still have not come to terms with what a pocket computer really means, here's a partial list.
phone - calculator - calendar - email - notpad - contacts
stock tracker - trader
camera with video (soon teleconferencing)
TV with autoprogramming
compass - GPS - map - kid tracker/emergency response
wikipedia in your pocket
remote control of your desktop (VNC is easy and free)
yellow pages
piano, flute, inclinometer, ruler
weather - news - sports
language leaner - translation
...and oh BTW, it also has a good internet browser, GAMES, soon every book and magazine ever published, and MP3s.

Books, movies, magazines, teleconferencing, and MP3s provide another level of potential profit. Google with as an open source competitor across all devices will be 5 years years behind technically, and 10 years behind on bells and whistles and popularity. Blackberry niche is fading as fast as Palm and Nokia.

iPhone Can Replace Laptops for Majority of Computer Users

Notice that everyone who agreed with the article's premise owns an iPhone and knows from experience that what the aerticle says. None of those who disagreed indicated that they have even tried an iPhone. I've tried an iphone. I've seen other's change in laptop use from it. My estimate is that time-wise it replaces at least 50% of the laptop. 90% for some people. Personally, when i type i am usually goofing off like right now and would prefer a laptop. But when i'm doing real work, i'm usually just reading the internet.

Buzz on the Second Coming of the iPhone

Lisa, the PE was down to about 18 from a high of about 30 last year. It's not a financial stock and I thought 30 was low given the iPhone meeting expectations, so I'll have to agree "creamed for no reason" is a fair assessment and I sent my friends an email on Feb 29: "buy, buy, buy". I send that kind of recommendation about twice a year. It was truly an odd thing and we're up 25% from it already.
