RE: lack of product inovation/updates/news With a such a positive attitude you must be shorting this stock. I, like millions of other people own an iphone, ipad, ipod, imac and will likely own the next iwhatever that comes out. What Apple has more of than ANY other company is brand loyalty....their stuff just works....and companies are rarely successful soley because of a CEO but oftentimes in spite of one. People make a company and I have doubt whatsoever that 10 years from now APPLE will still be successful company. So if you believe otherwise, short the stock or sell what you have but mine APPLE stock is staying right where it is and you would have to pull it from my cold dead hands.
