It is SO sad....One of my favorite things about working as a community and blog manager for BlackBerry ® is getting to talk to you and provide updates on our products. Each day on our social channels fans, followers and readers ask, when will BlackBerry ® 10 launch? It is clear you’re excited to get your hands on it, and we definitely can’t wait to get it to you. Today, I’m happy to report that Thorsten Heins, in a press release, announced that the BlackBerry 10 Launch event is to be held on January 30, 2013. The event will happen simultaneously in multiple countries around the world, where details of the smartphones and their availability will be announced. Here’s the message that Thorsten passed along in the release. “In building BlackBerry 10, we set out to create a truly unique mobile computing experience that constantly adapts to your needs. Our team has been working tirelessly to bring our customers innovative features combined with a best in class browser, a rich application ecosystem, and cutting-edge multimedia capabilities. All of this will be integrated into a user experience – the BlackBerry Flow – that is unlike any smartphone on the market today,” said Thorsten Heins, President and CEO of Research In Motion. “Thanks to our strong partnerships with global carriers and a growing ecosystem of developers, we believe our customers will have the best experience possible with BlackBerry 10. We are looking forward to getting BlackBerry 10 in the hands of our customers around the world.” As we’ve covered at events like BlackBerry World ™ and BlackBerry Jam Americas, BlackBerry 10 promises to offer exciting features like BlackBerry Flow, BlackBerry ® Hub, BlackBerry ® Balance ™, and the iconic and innovative BlackBerry Keyboard. Thanks to the diligent work from the dedicated BlackBerry developer community, it also will feature a large catalog of the leading applications from across the globe. So what do you say, Team BlackBerry? Are you excited for BlackBerry 10? Keep it locked to the Inside BlackBerry blogs for the latest BlackBerry 10 updates and let us know what you’re most excited about in the comments below. HERE!

I might be in the minority here, but I'm pretty optimistic about today thus far.
The move down in Apple has brought a ton of short term traders in, and these people couldn't care less about the fundamentals of the company. I think a lot of them are playing off of the fear and their number one goal is to get people who had no intention of selling AAPL to panic and sell anyway. Every day that goes by where it looks like "here it goes again" like Friday morning, or today mid-morning, and yet it manages to hold and not sell off is a good day. I'm sure people panicked and sold on Friday, and I'm sure they panicked again today, but it held because other long term buyers are stepping in. It's definitely not the momentum shorts covering their profits that kept this from new lows today. But at one point, the shorts will realize their move is over and lock in their gains, and when that happens, look out.

Excellent news about the drop in shipping times. Hopefully we are less than a week before we get to Christmas.

Have such SOB visit an Apple Store, as I did yesterday. Packed. No Iphone 5's except a couple of 64 gig black ones. No Ipad minis....they sell out within hours a each delivery. People marveling at the Mac Pros and Imacs.....and Black Friday is a long way away yet!

A guy I follow sent this as part of his subscription Mid Day Market Chatter. On a down day thought you all might like to see this; "AAPL - finally seeing positive movement on its 60 minute chart as well, although it needs another fresh low to establish a positive divergence. AAPL has a key price support level at 525 approaching. I like it from the current level down to 525 with this slowing selling momentum in play. Keep a fairly tight stop beneath the 525 level, however, to be safe."

Positive movement when you close red doesn't sound right to me. I agree that makes me feel worse, not better.

The divergence is there, this Could be the start or not. At some point Apple will turn-up.

Failure to retake the SMA-50 and yet another up-down cycle vs. inside day. I can't give the inside day much weight since we had one last week and it didn't result in anything worthwhile for bulls. Until I see AAPL close above 547, I have to assume the short-term trend remains down.
The "good" news is the selloff from 705 has probably softened any impact breaking through the SMA-50 weekly. Not all that comforting consider how far AAPL's already fallen just to get to this point.

That's a pretty crap day for AAPL.
Does SPX have a 200-day SMA problem?

What is discouraging is that Kass came out supporting APPL at these price levels and while it ws enough to move the stock up from its -8 price and briefly pushed it into positive territory, it was not enough to sustain a rally.
On the other hand, two years ago I believe it started its 4Q climb around 11/18/2010 and last year it gapped up and ran on Black Monday. So I am hoping that history will reassert itself (a.k.a. clutching at straws).

IMHO, Kass has zero effect on the stock, up or down.

I concur with the "whatever" assessment on Kass. He's one opinion. Sure, Buffett may move stocks now and then, because he buys giant blocks of stock.

...although I am getting tired of seeing "Market down, Apple Falls" again and again in the daily headlines on CNBC's main page. I am not 100% sure but I believe AMZN has fallen 4 out of the past 5 days and I didn't read AMZN falls. When Amazon trades at a low 2-digit P/E, they will surely report on it!

I bought the dip (again) today, adding 100 common @ 540 and added 10 contracts each for Jan '15 640/670 BuCS @ 8.70 and Jan '15 600/630 BuCS @ 9.85. Wouldn't be easier to just buy the BCS 600/670 instead? (a little more money, but less complexity, less trading, probably more liquidity, and almost equal risk)

AAPL overplays the market in virtually every session. Can we just start overplaying to the upside? Once again can't have two straight of up days. This stock's daily trading has turned so obvious and a complete joke.

On red days I like to look around and see the reminder that Apple products are hotter than ever. I've been traveling for residency interviews since earnings were released. I've been to New Orleans, Memphis, Durham and Lexington, KY. I've flown through Richmond and Atlanta. I see iPhones EVERYWHERE. And when I say everywhere, I mean up and down Bourbon Street in the hands of the guys and gals trying to get you to come into a "bar" for cheap drinks.
I always felt my perspective on iPhone invasion was skewed since I live on a college campus and thought that demographic was more likely to own an iPhone. But I see a higher proportion when traveling than I ever do at home. Just remember that the future is bright. Position your options far into the future and don't sell your commons. Everyone will be rewarded for buying this dip no matter where they bought it.

Narrower width spreads are easier for scaling in and out and adjusting the risk dial. Wider width easier for "buy it and forget it."

I live on he lower east side of manhattan (pretty far east so not as trendy) and it's probably 50% hispanic, 30% african american, 10% white, 10% arab and it's 90% Android phones. There are two metro PC stores 2 blocks from each other. I work in midtown on Park Avenue and it's 90% iPhones. Seeing a lot more iPhone 5 as well over the past 2 weeks which is very promising. Just an honest observation.

Excellent news about the drop in shipping times. Hopefully we are less than a week before we get to Christmas. I'm fearful that some SOB will interpret this as a fall off in demand. Hope you don't think I'm an SOB for asking, but how do we know whether reduced shipping times reflect supply increase or demand decrease? I'm just asking the question because no one seems to have the answer to this. I'm not too terribly concerned about iPhone5, because Apple should have had enough market data and experience with past iPhone launches to gage the demand. They had to have expected quite a high demand so the fact that they can't fully meet it yet seems to be a very good sign. I think the long shipping times for iPad Mini are more telling. I really feel they will struggle all through the holidays to meet that demand, which could mean a positive surprise on 1Q earnings.
