Fairy tales

does not sound like you really get all of the iPod story.

It has become an important part of information exchange via the podcast phenomena. It is becoming an important part of higher education, including medical education.

It is not just a discretionary music player.

Now, with with the video Pod it will become a vital tool to pornographers and perverts. If 10% of perverts buy them, that is tens of millions of additional sales *grin*

But seriously, it is part of a new ecology, a central part. It has already expanded way beyond the initial music function. Before too long, when it can easily plug into a box and have its video content displayed on a 40+ inch TV screen, it will drive more sales and become a potent force in video.

It is at the beginning. The ecology is just emerging. It will rapidly evolve. We will watch it do so. Some of us will profit from it. Some of us will sell when it gets to ridiculous heights and buy back later.

I am thinking AAPL may get slammed after earnings and rise again after Macworld, and I am going to play some of my shares that way.
