Remember folks! This is our money we're playing with. The initial rollout of the iMac is over. Apple will be trying to maintain the surge in momentum. The channel stuffing is evident in East Texas. Let's hear some reports from other areas.

That said, Apple's tactic is most likely to be one of trying to sell off the excess inventory over the Christmas holidays in some blowout promotional campaign. At the same time, I expect a second price tier iMac to be presented.

There is also a possibility of a handheld device being introduced. (vaguely rumored)

I think Steve is 'right on' about the channel stuffing, but I think SJ has a plan to clear the channel painlessly. Unless he is trying to sell the company before the chickens come home to roost.
