AAPL is NOT going to zero, probably not even 350. If AAPL's gonna keep selling off shorter-term, let's get it over with.

I hope so too. I'd rather it be quick and over with. Like a vaccine injection. Just stab me with it already, instead of having me wait in a line with my arm sleeve rolled up with a giant sign over the door that says "House of Pain, 100% Giant Needles Guaranteed."

Always looking ahead. The 5S is forward looking and not just a refreshed 5. However it has the same form, which leads to a conundrum (AFB word of the day). When Apple goes to update the 5S next year they'll boost the innards but completely redesign the outards (not AFB word of the day). Another example of disruptive thinking - the old game plan has been broken by the 5S. Wondering about the rumors of "low yield" for Touch ID sensors and the plans to put same into revamped iPad 5 and iPad Mini 2/retina. Will Apple wait until the spring to give 5S six-eight months of running room? Or take another "supply constrained" fall to push them out? We'll know in a month!

It is not helpful to have a blast tweet out from John Fortt saying that he guesses AAPL did not have pre-orders of over 3 million on the 5c or else they probably would have made a statement. I know you will say it is CNBC but this goes out to everyone and it is simply not helpful -- so more pain here I am afraid. ( Not that the masses listen to me but I was not expecting ANY announcements this week and I believe it was Mercel or Red that said we would get hurt if these idiots are waiting for an announcement this week since it will only fuel negative speculation.)

You sure I read, for in-store pre-orders, the 5C and 5S started tuesday AM in china. i'm just quoting a story from appleinsider though so who knows. that link lucy posted though gives some solid facts on the sold out preorders for almost every phone so far which is lovely.

Care to post what he said ? For those of us who are twitter challenged i tweeted him twice: @jonfortt why treat the 5C as a new phone? its the equiv of an iphone4 when the 4S came out. did they announce iphone4 #s at that time? nope and @jonfortt China preorder availability for 5C and 5S so far: ireservea.apple.com/HK/en_HK/reserve/iPhone/checkAvailability … make sure you all ignore it though (it's good news) he responded @terpstocks That's Hong Kong, not China overall and i responded @jonfortt true, but it's the first facts with 5S pre-orders from their largest stores. better than creating FUD from lack of pre-order PR Nice work . I'm a fan of Jon's and find him to be fair with Apple in fact if I'm not mistaken he once reported from a Apple store where he mentioned his son was an employee ! I'm pretty clueless with that part of Asia but is Hong Kong a fair representation of the Chinese demographic ??

On another topic: Does anyone know when iOS7 will be available for download ? I understand that the 18th is the official date but I seem to remember Apple making earlier versions available later in the evening the day before ...

Fort gets a pass. He's solid. No agenda at all IMO. He is good as was Jim Goldman.

An article in Slate that describes some parallels between Polaroid and Apple: goo.gl/kkM6K6I'm not one who believes that history repeats itself, partly because cautionary tales can give us ample warning.

Interestingly, even the US apple store continues to show some progress in the pre-orders for 5C. I just noticed that the yellow 16GB now has ships by 9/25 even for the T-Mobile option. Until recently, only the unlocked version was delayed to 9/25. For comparison, the yellow 32 GB for T-Mobile is still available for delivery by 9/20.
