    45 Million iPads in 2011? Don't Bet on It

    I agree with the gist of your post, but I think you may be off the mark with your last point. Sales of other MP3 players and smart phones didn't hinder sales of iPods and iPhones, but rather boosted them (likewise with Amazon's Kindle and its competitors); I think the same will happen with the iPad.

    Inflation should hurt Treasuries, but <i>help</i> equities, at least in nominal terms; considering the leverage in futures, that should be a net gain. Even though I agree that the market is forgiving with averagers until is not.
