I am a big fan of apple's, but when a retailer is having trouble and can not move inventory it is a cause for concern, since Apple is liable for a portion of that inventory in BB channel. Apple provides price protection ,etc ,etc. If BB does move the product then when the next generation comes out that becomes a hit to earnings. Hopefully Apple will manage BB very closely as opposed to just stuff that channel to make this qtrs numbers look good. These are things that compaines do. I am not saying that Apple is doing them here just a heads up warning.
