What's really happening at Apple? - Page 2

I can respect that. But honestly, do we always need to be wowed with a new product at every WWDC? I don't think so. In some ways I think if you look at Apple's successes and failures, you'll find that when they break into frequent product launches, the company gets spread too thin. Then they pull back and focus on the basics and come up with a product like the iMac or iPod.

Being an Apple customer, isn't about being in a constant state of wow. Like the spoiled kid complaining because he/she only has 150 channels to surf not the 500+ channels his / her neighbor has.

All I'm saying is maybe we should be happy with what we have.

Well Apple has been LATE AGAIN. Now this time with an online purchase of an iPod (for a graduation gift). It's been a week now and still no shipment. If they keep pushing back the date one more day and I will have to cancel the order and look to a brick store for another graduation gift because Apple seem can never stock anything (I even checked the closest Apple mall store for ANY iPod). This is making my choice of Apple making me look bad because now I won't be able to give the iPod as a gift at my nephew's graduation.

The next 3 years are going to be awesome at Apple. That last 4 have been pretty good. The first 8 were pretty good. The ones that were bad we don't even talk about anymore.

WOW! I was just at an Apple store in LA and they had TONS of them. Even the local Target and CompUSA have them in stock here (Southern California)....

All I know is that in Jersey, Im tripping over iPods left and right.

Target has them. Strawbridges has them (clothing store in mall), Apple store has tons. Best Buy has em, every single place has them! If you need one call a place in Jersey or call retailers.
