And now the game TRULY begins. Who leads the charge as a China Mobile 4G launch partner?

www.reuters.com/article/2013/12/04/china-4g-licence-idUSL4N0JJ1VL20131204China Mobile's 3G subscribers accounted for just 23 percent of its total subscribers as of the end of October, compared with 42 and 54 percent for China Unicom and China Telecom, respectively. China is only expected to license FDD-LTE networks - China Unicom and China Telecom's favoured standard - sometime next year. China Mobile issued a statement on its website acknowledging the award of the 4G and fixed-line broadband licenses, adding that it would "collaborate with the supply chain to make an all-out effort to push forward the construction and operation of 4G mobile communications".

Doing our part...
Picked up an Xmas mini for Fabulous Spouse yesterday. Ordered online, got an email saying it was ready 15 minutes later, and picked it up in Cambridge within an hour. Could not have been easier.
We will likely be going in together soon to replace the 4S's we got each other for Xmas two years ago. She has lusted after the champagne since the release, but is now wondering whether a case will make the color moot.

Did my part...
Picked up a top-of-the-line 1TB/2.6GHz/16GB retina MBP + accessories for $4000.
Will get the iPad Air, retina iPad mini, and two 5Ss when I come back from vacation in Feb.

I'm very encouraged by the fact that I had a really hard time deciding which product to buy the other day .... needed to replace a aging laptop. Originally , I thought the new iPad Mini would be perfect but after seeing the iPad air I had to consider that instead ... then maybe a Macbook Air ? ... but the new Macbook Pros are so thin and light and all that power .... wow what a lineup. Eventually got an Macbook Pro but now I'm going to get a mini to go along with it

I bought an Airport Extreme last week after upgrading to a fibre broadband connection at home. The Apple kit works beautifully and I am now getting close to 76 Mbps here in London. I would be interested to know what download speeds other forum members can achieve in their part of the world.

There's a fight of uncertainty going on today with AAPL seesawing from low to high 660s. When it goes towards the high end, there are those that aren't certain that this will continue and feel a downfall will begin now and they sell, and when the stock goes towards the low end, there are those that are getting aboard because they don't want to miss the boat this time.
Even if we end the day in the red but above 662ish, it'll feel like a positive sign for the run to continue tomorrow and day after.

Raj, I like you're direction and hopeful typing, but it will be a good day if we close north of 562.
