I like how the author is using as evidence for Apple’s wobble that people aren’t buying a phone now because they are waiting for Apple’s IPhone5. And also evidence: Apple’s products are cheaper two months in than they were at the launch — something which has never ever happened in the entire history of technological gadgets.
“Apple’s products are cheaper two months in than they were at the launch — something which has never ever happened in the entire history of technological gadgets”
You forgot the sarcasm tag. Technical gadgets are always cheaper a few months after release.
“I like how the author is using as evidence for Apple’s wobble that people aren’t buying a phone now because they are waiting for Apple’s IPhone5.”
Yep. This article also ignores the fact that the iPhone 4S has the highest customer satisfaction rating of any iPhone ever, at 98%.
The Kindle Fire may take some “tablet” market share from the iPad, but it has had a rocky debut. Further, it and the iPad don’t really aim at the same functionality. I expect there will be a 7” screen iPad at some point, at something like a $300 price point which will play very well against the Fire. (BTW from what I’ve read the new B&N tablet at $249 is head and shoulders above the Fire, and you can read Amazon content on it.)
