Quote from NoDoji:
Careful, if AAPL closes above 240 by opx, you'll be arrested for indecent exposure
Thanks Doji, won't be the first time. I'll buy the 250 calls on a move to 227-8.
5 million is the estimate, if I were buying a tablet I would wait a few months, there are many tablets coming to the market over next 3 months. I wish I knew what the hype was, tablets have been out for years and now all of the sudden the media is yelling that they will replace standard netbooks and pcs??? I have no idea what the hype is behind a tablet computer, does it matter if you search or write an email on a PC, netbook, laptop or tablet. Its all the same. Consumers will be dumb enough to race out to the stores wait in line like FOOLS and buy another tech product that offers the same thing their smartphone or laptop can do. Consumers are so dumb.

Analyst sees 5 million iPad sales in 2010
Silicon Valley / San Jose Business Journal
Apple Inc. is on pace to sell 5 million iPads this year and 1.2 million in the current quarter, Barclays Capital analyst Ben Reitzes told the firm's clients Wednesday.
"IPad yields should improve dramatically throughout the year even if the launch starts out capacity constrained," Reitzes wrote, adding that his estimates could prove conservative.
The analyst also predicted that Apple will come up with a new form of iPhone this year which will make a "big splash."
"We believe that the new model will launch with considerable fanfare and expect unit expectations to rise in turn," he said.
An online survey conducted by the Silicon Valley/San Jose Business Journal found one third of the respondents said they expect to buy an iPad, with 9 percent saying they plan to buy one right away.
The Wall Street Journal on March 18 quoted an unnamed source it said was familiar with the matter that iPad sales in their inaugural three months could outsell the number of iPhones Apple sold in the similar time frame.
