"Data from the analytical firm iSuppli suggest that Apple sold roughly 200,000 units in July, but it must average about 243,000 a month to hit the company's goal of one million units by the end of September, Sacconaghi calculates." Compare this to the previous post referencing the sale of the one millionth iPhone by this morning. So, to cop a line from Einstein: Surely, gentlemen, you both can't be right. ;-) Dan

Company spin that higher sales will more than make up the difference in margin is hogwash, especially when issuing $100 credits to hundreds of thousands of singed customers. The rebates will directly hurt cash flow -- the metric that bulls monitor most. Does this guy know accounting? The $ 100 credit is not the same as rebate. And since the credit will be used to buy more Apple product, there is no cash outflow for this transaction. It can affect margin, but whether the increase in volume will compensate for lower margin remains to be seen.
