  • UBS Analyst: Survey Shows 3G iPhone Poses Little Threat to BlackBerry [View article]
    the corporate world is not going to change from blackberry. IT are not risk folks. nor are corporate executives.. they have a blackberry that handles all their communications and functions . why would they change over to an unknown and at an expense with sales crashing around them. i doubt rimm has much competition from mid to large corporations.

  • Can Offshore Drilling Bring Down Gas Prices? [View article]
    "potential negative impact on tourism" you lost me after that statement. no way could you ever see the drill rigs off shore they are talking a mimimum of 50 miles off shore. You have no idea of what may lay off shore for oil , only estimates from decades ago and we need to drill to determine if profitable. Let's not look at bringing prices down and look at security issues. put the oil produced into storage in case of shortages, sell only in united states the excess if any, and build up a tax that will provide for potential major oil spill. With a fund built ahead of drilling states should be relieved of having a financial determents.

  • Oil Companies Paid More Than Bottom 75% of Taxpayers [View article]
    it states corp tax,, but i wonder if they include in this tax,, all the tax they collect at the gas pump we pay for federal , state or local taxes as taxes paid under corp income. no breakout of taxes paid.

    this is not a tax on oil industry and they i assume get a service fee for collecting these taxes and passing them on.. in other words they make money collecting taxes.

  • Solar Symbiosis: Making a Clean Break  [View article]
    we are not moving fast enough on electric cars. there should be larger incentives to get more of the commuter to trade in there care earlier. i have no idea of per cent of commuters that could drop buying gasoline and have it pay for over night charge to batteries. If break even we still when if the offset is less pollution. then again no idea about disposal of batteries or recycle. Does anyone know if an electric car is cheaper then buying $4. gas if your commute is less than forty miles each way?

    Peco in my area is not a cheap provider of electricity and is looking for increases all the time.

  • GE's Dismal Earnings a Warning for Other Medical Device Companies  [View article]
    we heard the same thing prior to the last quarter and isrg blew away the estimates.. these hospitals if to compete for clients must have the robot or people will go to another hospital. there are several in philly and because of it. several more have been installed in the suburbs at local hospitals to keep business from moving into center city. All these machines can be leased vs purchased outright by isrg which has plenty of cash on hand to finance these robots. ge problems are not isrg problems.
