Buying Apple Today: Like Buying Microsoft in 1998? [View article]
Why did you write "Can competitors such as Research In Motion (RIMM), Palm (PALM), Nokia (NOK), and T-Mobile (DT) [partnering with Google (GOOG)] undermine AAPL's market dominance at some point?"
According to my knowledge Symbian has approximately 51 per cent of the smartphone market while Apple has only 13 per cent. It surely isn't Apple that dominates the market.
iPhone killers?? Wow! Americans have been able to produce a cellphone! First Razr and now iPhone!
iPhone has 0,5 per cent (!) of the worldwide cell phone market and it's declining rapidly (600.000 sold worldwide this quarter, down from 2 million). Virtually none sold in Europe. No need to kill that product. It shall kill itself with its substandard 2 Mpx camera and the price of $600 as there are much better products with 5 Mpx cameras for $1.
If iPhone had been launched 2004 it just might have been competitive in Europe. Now it is unfortunately going the same way as Razr.
