Now if we were talking about their laptops or desktops then I definitely agree they are overpriced. That is why they don't sell very many of them compared to ones running Windows. |

Yes, the used vs new market. Personally, I like everything brand new. You get a 1 year warranty. And Apple has excellent customer service if you have an Apple store nearby.

Xoom: iPad Killer
"Apple sold 9.2 million iPads in the June quarter and Apple CFO Peter Oppenheimer noted Apple is selling "every iPad we can make." In contrast, Motorola Mobility shipped (not necessarily sold) 440,000 in the just ended quarter, and expects to sell 1.3 to 1.5 million tablets this year. As Dan Frommer points out, Apple sells 1.5 million iPads every two weeks. " |

Royalties, no. I've made a killing on their stock, though. Bought a lot when it was at $80 after the crash in 2008. It hit 400 a couple of days ago. They just keep selling.
And FWIW, I'm only mentioning the article because the comparison in units sold is hilarious. Motorola hopes to sell as many Xooms in a year as Apple sells iPads in 2 weeks? Geezus. |

Apple has like $72b in cash right now, so it's not a bank-breaker or anything. |

Yeah, I wish there was some info on the Amazon tablet. Last I heard they were looking for an October release.

That apple tablet is kind of neat looking. Can I get it with the Android OS?
