Technicals obviously look great, though since they improved at an inflection point, even better. Fundamentals and story also aligning. Sure, we have a big price gap, but a decent number of people fleeing tech fled to safety, er, AAPL, I'm guessing. There've been worse macro setups.

No one can say I don't dig deep for the latest iPhone shots: Here, in the Ukraine are pics of a style reminiscent of the iPod, only larger and thinner (Stephen King had nothing on Jony Ive, btw). I think the iPod is the best looking iDevice it has made -- rounded back, thin, and aluminum back. ukrainianiphone.com/25/04/2014/171441#9to5mac

Dammit Mercel will you not post April Fool's troll articles like three weeks late
FaceTube is the dumbest name ever
Also, it could be a troll concept name (Facebook + YouTube) until they get the trademark for the real title.

Hah, MDN got trolled. They've been a little bearish on Cook until maybe Wednesday. They managed to get me a little swept up in it, so I've been tuning out a bit. Q2 shows what we know. Tim OTOH. He knows. Like Bo knows. (That was just awful, I know. )

Loved the Friday action...great close...buyers lining up looking for entry points. If you don't catch the leeeetle dip in the first half hour you have to fret as the day goes along..then, boom, we go green....and the last hour of trading was a thing of beauty..

Have you heard the news? Putin says he is NOT invading the Ukraine for any other purpose than to find Mercel. Seems he's smuggling illegal pics of iPhone6 out of the country. He said you can give yourself up ... he just wants to talk ... he means you no harm ... honest ... you can trust him - he's a respectable member of the KGB

I didn't recognize Putin with his shirt on. Probably the only time it's safe to talk politics on AFB2: Ok, here goes, the people of Russia deserve better than a KGB colonel whose main objective is to be voted "Sexiest Man Alive" by People magazine. Is it working for you Phoebes?

I know you're a Constant Pain in the Ass, so what am I? Red? Red? Red? ? Does anyone read iMore? The visual mishmash is just too much. If Jackson Pollock were alive and writing about tech, this would be his home page. One would think he'd have someone with design talent to fix his site. It's unfortunate, because there's some good content there if your eyes can tolerate the pain. I've written Rene about it -- just trying to help a neighbor out, you know?

If Jony Ive is working on something for the wrist that he's really excited about, make me want to wear it more than this:

It's worth reminding that Einhorn, the master of the short, owns Apple. The question is whether the tech bubbles splatter their dead air on AAPL. I think he's making a case for rotation INTO Apple myself. Einhorn is one voice among thousands, which becomes a 20 second soundbite on CNBC. BTW, CNBC has room for over 4,000 of these "infomercials" each and every day. It's a real problem for journalism that people can't trust what they hear when it's an endless stream of opinion coming from all directions.

iMore might seem less visually scattered if some of its content were less puffed than certain brands of cereal.
Stuff like Ritchie's S5 iterating to an iPhone S level (IF EVEN THAT) in an a iPhone 6 year? Good. As were the product scoops others are better at finding now. How much GB/what color iPhone should I get? Better ways to maintain attention of your audience I submit, but hey, iMore does have an audience plus contest incentives.
Evans is OK but not really an ear-to-grounder on Apple. Now we all see the S curve of revenues but few go the extra step of looking at context and Apple being the world's #1 pure play tech company by far. He seems to dismiss Cook's commentary on iPad, tho to be fair he points out the current growth situation doesn't equate to competitors gaining on Apple. His post suggesting Android's market share could result in "higher total engagement" then iOS was iffy. But again, yeah, he does have an audience.

If you read the WSJ piece, Einhorn made it clear he was talking about high fliers with huge P/E's, not AAPL. The exact thing a lot of us on AFB are always belly-aching about. But it is an argument for AAPL to GTF out of the NASDAQ before reckoning day. And guess who is now the king of the high margin smartphone: The $4000 Tonino Lamborghini AntaresLooks kinda Klingony. Maybe Red can buy one with all of his AAPL loot.

This is a great article, required reading. Says exactly what I have been saying about Google (hey, maybe that's why it's so brilliant!). It shows what complete dunderheads the tech media are. If the WSJ had any brains, they'd hire Dilger. I stand by my belief that, someday, GOOG will be the Short of the Century.
