Apple wows us again
I wish I had Apple stock.
We’ve been expecting an SDK, and a path for getting 3rd party apps on the iPhone and iPod touch for a while now. Even with the expectation there I am blown away. Not only do we have ridiculously cool and high tech hardware, but it looks like they did everything right with the SDK. We are going to see an explosion of creative apps utilizing a lot of untapped power in these devices.
Better yet, Apple is providing all the developers a marketplace they don’t have to maintain that gets their apps in front of every iPhone/iPod user… anywhere in the world.
To top that off Apple’s put aside $100,000,000 to invest in this market. I can’t think of a single time I’ve seen a company create a market so rapidly, and so intelligently. This is what capitalism is all about people. Not only is Apple going to reap huge amounts of money from their innovative technology and thinking here, but thousands of small time developers now have an easy channel to make money on their work, and millions of users are going to benefit from the apps they create.
Wow.

It’s not too late to buy Apple Stock. I got some at $121 a share. They were at about $170 4 weeks ago and wall street targets them at $250 a share. Anyhow, I drink the kool-aid and love their products too.

Of course, it’s not too late, and I probably will at some point! I’m kinda hoping for a split so I can get in at a lower price! Maybe the recession will do it. Maybe I’ll keep putting it off
It’s not a big concern at the moment.
