I notice that the ipad has now been out for a few hours. The earth has not stopped rotating, and the sun is still expected to set on time tonight. Any news reports on this being the first day of the ipad ? Will Apple's stock rise in monday (or does the exchanges reopen on tuesday ?)

You expected the Earth to implode immediately similar to the Republican "health care reform is the apocolypse" campaign promises? ; ) -- Send responses to the relevant news group rather than email to me. E-mail sent to this address may be devoured by my very hungry SPAM filter. Due to Google's refusal to prevent spammers from posting messages through their servers, I often ignore posts from Google Groups. Use a real news client if you want me to see your posts. JR |
