AFAIK, it's only been reported in NYC. The Apple Store in Manhattan was completely upfront about it, so ask at your local Apple store and you'll probably get a straight answer for your service area.

I have occasional dropped call issues in Los Angeles. Not enough to make me change phones.

I'm not getting an iPhone. I want 3G service for my Palm Pro.

1. NO the iphone doesn't work with verizon yet. The day it does I imagine Apple's stock will soar. I for one have been holding out on re-upping my contract with Verizon in hopes of being able to use my new every 2 years to get an Iphone..

2. BRK.B split as part of the deal doing the Burlington Northern Purchase. Buffett wanted small investors to get the same deal as large investors. So if you had 100shares of BNF you get the same deal as the firm with 100,000.

Wish I'd followed Wayne's lead. Apl stock is more than double what it was a year ago.

Always a day late and a dollar short.

All time high.

Apple shares finished the day at 411.63, up 2.8%, despite a widespread selloff everywhere else (although the Nasdaq was fairly well-behaved).

That’s a new all-time closing high for Apple stock and just the third close above $400.

Dubious comparison time! Apple is now easily the biggest US company by market cap, at $381.6 billion, compared with Exxon Mobil’s $358.3 billion.

And if market cap were GDP, Apple would have one of the world’s thirty-biggest economies, on par with Austria, Argentina and South Africa.

But of course market cap is not GDP. It’s just a vote of faith that, come recession, apocalyptic European meltdown or high water, people will buy iPhones in the fall.
