Apple

Apple Jumped up another 400% today.[sarcasm and exaggeration implied] You have to wonder what would happen if they do jump to more than one carrier for the iPhone. It would be interesting to see the original deal that was struck back in 07 with the launch of the original iPhone? Did they really think it was going to bomb? Or was AT&T the only company that was willing to take a chance. I don't even know the specs on the carriers in other countries.
So what's next? Cloud based computing and applications using iOS4? What about those of us with real laptops? I suppose that will make the optical drive on my mac useless. I honestly have only used it the three different times I set up my bootcamp. The Macbook Air didn't really change the world, maybe it will have a new life. Everyone seems to be jumping into the SSD drives now- for twice the price.
I would also assume that as soon as I pay off this macbook pro- the best ever apple laptop device will arrive along with a new operating system. Thats my prediction...iOS4 combined with OS X, we'll call it iOSXx4=OS14. er-OS40? er- Whats the roman numeral for 40, XXXX? Theres my prediction. Windows will have another similar OS to Apple, then the lawsuits will arrive. New Gadgets, cars with iOS4 (or the new version) running in the dashboard. Now that would be cool- trying to download a new version of Donkey Kong to play on the backseat tablets while driving 80mph down I-70. Cadillac has a 40gb hard drive in a few of their cars, why not have a glorified iPad in the dash and back seats? Who is going to be the first to come up with the freaking iCar? The president of Apple only drives a Mercedes-so I guess we're all screwed. The iCar will cost well over $80,000.
 A few of my predictions. After my baby is born next spring, I will look back and see how right I was and maybe someone will give me a cool-work from home-tech blog job.....it could happen......
