Q4 numbers will be a blowout. No way these numbers are baked in IMO. I like this better communication by Apple management....thank you, Tim. What does the "many will be delivered In October" language do for when sales ( earnings) are recognized? The revenue will be recognized in the quarter it shipped. That's when the credit cards will be hit. THAT got me to thinking. I looked and Apple hit my cc on Saturday. Delivery before Friday? Would be nice.

Re: iPad mini/Air I think normally it would be a strange move for apple to announce/release a new product so soon after the annual iPhone release, but maybe the thinking is to give Microsoft a knock out blow on the eve of its most important product launch ever (Windows 8/Surface) in late October. On this topic, the price sheet for Asus Windows 8 tablets leaked out today: $599 for the gimped windows RT version plus an extra $199 for a keyboard dock ($800 combined) $799 for the full windows 8 (intel) version plus an extra $199 for a keyboard dock ($1000 combined) I'm getting quietly confident that windows 8 (on tablets at least) is DOA. I don't think Apple picked a release date based on when MSFT is releasing anything. I think both companies picked this time period because it happens to be immediately before the busiest retail shopping time of the year. If MSFT's products get completely eviscerated as a result, so be it. Apple is in a tremendous position of strength right now and they dictate when others' products are released, not vice versa. Apple is releasing the iPad Mini to completely crush any possible shred of success any of its tablet competitors thought they might be able to cling to. iPad Mini likely equals game, set, match in the tablet market.

Ok, I figured it out. "Next page " is the tiny ">>" button. Is it possible to make the navigation bars at the top, and bottom, larger? It would make someone (like me) with degrading vision and fat fingers very happy. Thanks. I'm going to need help with that kind of stuff. I'm not a techie. Getting this far was NOT all that hard -- I just hit buttons and found instructions and copied codes to get basic functionality how we needed it.

We will be glad to assist. I know some webmasters, formerly of the defunct MacLife forums and I believe the Apple Turns forums.
Feel free to email for first contact. I can call in a number of chips.

Is the proboard app worth $3. That after-all is worth .004 of a common share. : ) Yeah, I just bought the app tonight and love it so far. It makes the board even more readable than in website form on a desktop. Definitely worth the $3 if you do a lot of reading on iOS.

iPad, maybe we should have an Intraday thread...each day. Maybe this is just initial interest, but we've got a ton of activity here.

I'm going to post here until the functionality is back at AFB1. Since I'm a moderator there, I will still do basic stuff there. Everyone can decide what he/she wants to do individually, and when the time comes, as a group. For myself, I just couldn't deal with the lack of functionality and the community (and our content) falling apart while we waited. But I don't want to make choices for others. I originally pulled this place together as a Band-Aid, but I must admit that the relative ease of "getting things done" the way I want has been refreshing. What that should tell you is that the people in charge did not want to do what was requested because they feel they know best. You put together a site in a very short time that is user-friendly. Draw your own conclusions, but other sites are always driven by money goals, this one is not. The $7 per 50k views is a no-brainer to me for the group to stay here. Heck, not even sure why I am giving my input, its not like I will be around long. Promises promises! ;D

B-b-but he delivered MISCREANTS?! We must SMITE him! Oh hey mad. Obviously you're not one of those "miscreants". Now we just need to hear from those accounts who registered but didn't post...say the Artist Formerly Known as Mercel...

One update about the iMac G5 and poof, gone, no goodbye - though IIRC he still did contribute to Mac magazines here and there.

I know they only offer two choices, but give it another shot.....

I did my duty, Lovey. Two miscreants delivered, as requested. Love you, Red!!!! Miscreants? Hmmm. I was delayed as other than the very profitable talking green apple trees, the yellow brick road lead me to nowhere. Darn munchkins led me astray once again. I shoved that lollipop where....ahem. Where are my manners. I do feel naked without my avatar. Have tried adding, but no workie. I know Red would like some company in the headlight department.

This quick transition from one social forum to another is a perfect example in how Apple can get millions of Facebook users to make the switch. The time will come.

How did I do dat? Avatar is back! FM! Apple is on a roll my friends, and Red. Getting the feeling that market participants are looking beyond the results of the upcoming earnings season. Not just AAPL, but the market in general.

Jeepers. The posting volume on here today is astounding.
I was travelling in the last couple hours of trading today, and was SO happy to see the stock close up like this when I landed after close. Outside of technicals, I think it's been a really healthy rise... no abnormally huge days lately... just slow and steady.
