  • Here's an Unconventional Idea: Sell Apple [View article]
    "The iPhone, especially now with a $99 price tag, will eventually start to cannibalize iPod sales."

    Hello, McFly? Have you ever paid attention to monthly charges one must pay in order to enjoy that $99 iPhone? Over a two year contract it is at least $850, if you count a $5 a month TXT messaging charge and tax.

    So you really think that a device that costs someone an extra $35 a month (on top of the normal phone plan) to use it is going to cannibalize sales of a device that I pay for once? Unless the iPhone monthly pricing structure changes, the iPod will always be a winner.

    (I'm actually buying the $250 iPod Classic this week... Love the 120 GB of space)

  • Apple Investors: Fasten Your Seatbelts, Put On Helmets [View article]
    I'm buying more. I like the lower price, especially as it gets down into the 140s.

    Chicken Littles thrive off of fear... "Republicans put us in recession! It's gonna get worse and worse! Yada yada yada!"

  • Assessing the Wild Card in the iPhone Rollout [View article]
    I'm invested in AAPL for the longhaul, because they continue to create products that don't get in people's way. I bought the 16GB $299 version of the iPhone 3G yesterday, and once the activation problems were over (about 4 hours after I bought it), it was very easy to set up.

    It's products like this that convince me that AAPL is a great long-term investment.

  • Apple on Steve Jobs Health Rumors: No Comment [View article]
    Apple stock will probably stay put until July 11, after which we will see a steady climb. I am amazed at how many people I've talked to who are snagging a 3G iPhone--including a lot of people who were didn't jump in on the first edition.
