>> My money BTW is where my mouth is, where's yours?

A good portion invested in Microsoft and Nokia. Enough left for a good Apple short, coming soon... X-D

OT:

Have fun in Hawaii! Lovely place. We went there three years ago. Disney year after. Aruba last year. I enjoyed Aruba more than Hawaii; highly recommend it. Its out of the hurricane zone, people very, very friendly! We rented a house with a pool.

Have fun. Please do keep your eyes out for these, they are very common in Hawaii. :)

And enjoy the water.

>>>> "I think you will begin to see some light in late October. It is over for the iPhone; and this last victory lap, propelled by the remnants of wind that former innovator had in its sails, truly smells of it.

The recent lack of innovation and abandonment of polished software from Apple is truly remarkable.

I think Apple iPhone will maintain a small group of core users, but its former glory is to be something you can observe in your rear view mirror a mere few weeks from now. :) "

(had you said next October you might have had some credibility and at least some breathing space,but regards the crappy maps, remember Antenna gate for the 4,and Sirigate for the 4s, neither caused a ripple in the stick price. This is also no biggie, it will be fixed.)

BTW, your view of world computer market share is
somewhat old fashioned, but whats it got to do with my comments on iPhone sales increasing Apple ecosystem sales, which is a fact ?
Though, if you wantr to talk of sales of computers check whose ecosystem is growing and whose diminishing. And whose profits growing.

Anyway, I'm shortly off to Hawaii courtesy of Mr Jobs, see ya in November when I get back, lets see whose predictions are looking sick rthen, especially when we consider your miserable record on Apple since launching your other forum. My money BTW is where my mouth is, where's yours?

I would like to recommend to you the Walmart in Honolulu, Tumbleweed... as expensive as everything is in Hawaii, especially basics, this is about the few place you can shop and not pay out the nose, for everything from Milk to touristy stuff to bring home with you. You might want to start to think about cutting back a bit about now. X-D
