Apple Stores Out of iPhones, Piper Says; 3G Soon?... (form Apple Thread, not sure if this is an article) April 1, 2008, 4:26 pm Posted by Eric Savitz Will Apple (AAPL) surprise everyone with an earlier-than-expected debut of the next generation iPhone? Piper Jaffray’s Gene Munster raised that possibility today. He writes in a research note that calls today to 20 Apple retail stores nationwide found none of them had iPhones in stock. He also notes the lead time for phones ordered on Apple.com stands at 5-7 days. Munster figures there is an 80% chance that a new iPhone is coming earlier than expected; he sees a 20% chance that there is a production or manufacturing issue with the phone. If a new version is coming, Munster contends, it will likely be a 3G phone at the current $400 price point. “We do not expect a radical form factor change and see the new version as looking similar to the existing iPhone,” he writes. Meanwhile, Merril Lynch last night reinstated coverage of Apple; new Merrill Lynch hardware analyst Jeff Fidacaro rates the stock a Buy, with a $180 price target. “We remain positive on Apple’s growth potential given its opportunity to gain market share in large addressable markets, especially in the PC and mobile handset markets,” he wrote. Apple today jumped $6.03, or 4.2%, to $149.53.
