Apple's latest profits soared past expectations as sales of its best-known iPhone and iPad products more than doubled.
Net income was $7.31bn (
Yes - was to be expected. What will be interesting is what they will come up with next? Now that there are more and more companies bringing their versions of the iPad to the market Apple could do with something new/innovative again to keep them ahead of the game otherwise it will start to hit their profits.
I love my apple iPhone  its probably the most sophisticated phone I have ever owned. They have always been on the forefront of development it seems. many new smartphones are trying to copy the iphone. Did you guys know that Steve Jobs might be stepping down though? IB Times says that because of his medical problems and because he has taken more medical leave, they might be weighing their options into getting a new CEO on board. I read it here : IBTimes Thanks, Dreamraven
Well finally got an iphone and have to say early impressions i love it! Was never a fan before and my technical phobia put me off from having one but cant put the damn thing down now! Yep can see why their profits are so good - its a good bit of kit! Clive

“Did you guys know that Steve Jobs might be stepping down though?

I read it here : IBTimes” Yes, I have heard that Apple's directors are looking for new CEO to replace jobs. Tim Cook is one of the nominees. Lets see what good new guy would do to carry on the series of victories. Bliss Felton
You have got to hand it to Apple, they have managed to come up with great products whilst being a lone supplier. At one time I thought they would go the way of Betamax/VHS with the PC market being the VHS bit Anyway I am glad they are making such good stuff. highlandspring
“You have got to hand it to Apple, they have managed to come up with great products whilst being a lone supplier.” They are great, the products well designed and usable. But their finger in the air to the competitors is a bit frustrating. The only people who suffer are the customer. As long as Flash doesn't run on an iPad, it will be nothing more than a gadget, and not a business tool as the TV adverts will have you believe. yeah Apple, we know there are rivals to Flash, now you tell that to the 100 million websites still using it. The number of web sites you can't use is frustrating, everything from the kiddies BBC site - cbeebies to Google analytics, and its lack of display for charts etc.  I've noticed our Google Plus 1 buttons don't show on iPads, but the Facebook plug in works ok, wonder if that's another finger the air. Why can't they just allow multi vendor support, I'm sure they can afford a few licence fee's, and let the consumer vote with their wallets for the best product. So annoying as its a superb bit of kit and I love it  |
