Which brings me to another issue raised by some members of the corporate media: I am not a stock analyst and do not recommend the buying and selling of securities. I have never intentionally advocated the purchase of or targeted the future valuation of any stock, including Apple. I have cited comparisons of stock valuations as evidence of market trends and profitability, but do not materially benefit from the content I chose to cover or the manner I present that information in the articles I write.

Imasanti,

I wasn’t trying to imply that it did – I am just curious as to how this whole deal will play out with MS’s mobile marketshare as these carriers and hardware makers start to support a different platform.

Sprint absolutely is a parasite.

Ummm, “schadenfreudewunsch “? I’m impressed you’re now coining your own words in foreign languages, but that’s a hell of a mouthful to pronounce. How about:

Schadenwich – “Finding joy in eating someone’s lunch”
Schademy – “Finding joy in sticking it to someone”
Schadenzoon – “Pretending to find joy”

Any others?

That does not mean anyting (good).
They are “parasites”…

parasite |ˈparəˌsīt|
noun
• an organism that lives in or on another organism (its host) and benefits by deriving nutrients at the host’s expense.
• derogatory a person who habitually relies on or exploits others and gives nothing in return.

You were absolutely right about Google’s intentions, Dan… the entire ‘Android’ OS is being touted as an open alternative to the status-quo (WindozeMobile). Interestingly enough, some of MS’s key WinMobile partners on on-board with the Open Handset Alliance, including Sprint and HTC. Of course Verizon isn’t anywhere to be seen, and neither is Palm.

Palm hasn’t released anything actually ‘new’ in years, instead they just keep repackaging the same ole’ thing (it’s almost like getting yet another Chicago greatest hits album). We got some new WinMob 6 phones in the office – they’re awful.

The one thing I noticed about your articles is that your prognosticating abilities is very accurate! I just re-read your article on “The Great Google gPhone Myth.” Damn…you are damn good. How do you do that? Maybe, you need to do an article on prognostication…you know, so that the other so called journalist can learn something.

Thats what I also reckon. The Zoon must become a real object, crafted to represent everything that is reprehensible about the recipient.

I vote it has many sharp corners.

I’ve said it before but will again simply because it’s fitting. According to estimates from Gartner, in the 3rd calendar quarter of 2007 Y/Y Mac sales were up 37% while non Apple PC sales grew by an “anemic” 2.6%. That’s over 14x the growth rate! I do understand the word don’t I? The other point I LOVE to make is that the “anemic” PC market is happening after Vista went on sale and before Leopard was available. That has GOT TO BE painful for Redmond and the shills to watch.

I’ll bet Apple could care less if 1 million iPhone sales means 1 million fewer iPod sales (it doesn’t). Has Wolverton ever seen a calculator or a spreadsheet? It doesn’t take a genius.

Let me try to use this word but this time by making up a fake opening sentence from our buddy Scott Moritz.

iPhone opening partial weekend sales were an anemic 270,000 when my sources said it would be a million.

That’s not exactly what he said but it’s a good summary.

One more thing… This quarter I expect the average daily sell through for iPod to be over 270,000 per day, every day, all quarter. I better go look up that word again because that doesn’t sound anemic to me.

Please send your donations to Daniel so he can afford to develop the Zoon into a large blunt object that can be presenting in person ;-)
