So, will AAPL soar now that FB didn't provide the stock-gamblers the instant riches that they sought? Will they flock back to AAPL? Did they actually leave AAPL shares for FB? I am still having a hard time figuring out why it tanked so hard in the last week.
Anyone want to handicap Apple's Photo Stream sharing initiative. Is the revolutionary, evolutionary, or barely keeping up with the competition? Instagram built an interesting business with (initially) an iOS only app. Apple is also talking about video sharing as well through iCloud. Time to buy grandma an iPad or AppleTV?
I bet Apple will imitate the usefulness of facebook/instagram photo sharing functionality if it is worthwhile.
Apple did imitate others on their way to making gazillions.
I recall that Jobs liked the way Dell sold stuff with their website, so he decided Apple.com would be a good site to buy stuff.
He also liked those GAP stores and wanted to imitate them with the Apple store.
I imagine iCloud will copy in some ways Dropbox/sugarsync, etc.
So, the photo sharing stuff will probably be inevitable.
Who knows, Apple may also end up making an "iBook" facebook parallel.
There isn't anything they can't do if they want to, they have the money and resources to.
I'm just hoping to not see Zukerberg's face so much anymore.
It is a mystery why Apple went down last week, but I believe that it just how these things go, the overall market went down, and so did Apple.
However, when you find a $20 on the sidewalk, you don't ask or look around too much, you just pick it up.

family pictures dont get much public interest or earn higher market value!

the media has a love affair with FB.. always have!
Apple's photostream can chip away at facebook, at no cost to Apple but to facebooks detriment.
Apple is selling increasing numbers of ALL of the products it makes
And people are running out of credit to buy this crap that goes obsolete in a year with.
And with the rapist wireless loser companies like Veriscum, Sprunt and AT&Trash ripping off people with ever decreasing voice quality and massive fine for using the internet for anything, I cant see this craze continuing. Its insane. Family phone bills these days are bloody oppressive. Joke. The infrastructure is old and mangy, yet, they charge more and more for this old junk getting more and more oversubscribed by the day.
Joke. The all you can eat internet revolutionized the world, and the oligarchs and rapists want to put a toll booth and a NKVD censor in front of this internet in the wireless world. What a joke and a sad regression. Going backwards and costing more and more of your daily bread.

Foxconn chairman: we're going to build Apple's television
Television? What is that? Must be a new product !

But a platform for disruptive media content creation and distribution might. Or at the very least help them maintain margins. YMMV...
It just wouldn't look right to pull out a plastic Korean phone from your French $2000+ handbag, would it?
I guess it wouldnt matter either way, since Apple uses Samsung parts.

Pictures of anyones grand-ma or last years summer vacation were never that interesting.
disruptive.. ? must be this...

Been searching around and talking to other investors in chat rooms and there's a growing number of folks thinking it's a good time to start shorting Apple. They may have reached their peak and the decline is beginning. A recent article from Jin Yee states that she's one of those that believe it's a good time to start looking into shorting Apple also.
