Public opinion on Apple stock sags, stays healthy

Public opinion on Apple stock sags, stays healthy
Public opinion of Apple's stock value dropped substantially in February, but remains good, claims Piqqem. The latter company gathers opinion on stock performance from online subscribers, and notes that Apple stock now sits at a score of 2.68, which is still bullish but below a six-month peak closer to 3.0. The figure began plunging dramatically on February 22nd, though it has since stabilized....



AT&T stores now offering early upgrade pricing on iPhone 3G
In the latest move aimed at helping Apple clear inventory of iPhone 3Gs ahead of new models anticipated this spring, AT&T retail stores are now offering some customers early upgrades to the Apple handset at subsidized pricing.


i.TV 1.4 adds U-verse support, speed enhancements
i.TV has launched version 1.4 of its TV and movie guide for the iPhone and iPod touch. The update provides AT&T U-verse listings for all coverage areas, and more support for Comcast customers, including video-on-demand information and other material. Stability and speed improvements have also been made; the latter cut the start-up time for the app roughly in half, and double active running speed....



iPhones Available Without Contracts

As of yesterday, Apple has made iPhones available at their stores to customers not wanting to sign a contract. The 8 GB version will run you $599, and the 16GB is $699. To activate your iPhone, you can do so through iTunes.

Much of the speculation is that Apple is trying to dump all the stock they have in time for the release of their new iPhone. I don’t think the price points help that matter any, but that’s just my opinion.

Apple confirms unlimited, contract-free iPhones
Reiterating facts from circulating reports, Apple has confirmed that shoppers can now pick up an unlimited number of contract-free iPhones from Apple Stores. The shift in policy mirrors one announced by AT&T, except that the carrier limits purchases to one contract-free phone per existing subscriber. Both Apple and AT&T prices are set at $599 for an 8GB phone, and $699 for 16GB. A two-year cont...



Rumor: Skype for iPhone nearly ready

Filed under: , ,

VOIP for iPhone is the dream of many a user, and Om Malik suggests that it might be days away. Citing a "...very reliable source," Om says that Skype is ready to launch their iPhone app, perhaps at next week's CTIA Wireless event.

That's whole lot of "suggests" and "might" and "perhaps," is it not? Frankly, I don't see why Apple or AT&T would be keen on Skype for the iPhone or iPod touch. Of course, here are other VOIP options available, like fring and iCall (among others), so what do I know? It's an interesting rumor, but for now, that's all.
