Firstly, it's been discussed ad nauseam before, and secondly, your thread title is highly misleading and bears no relation to the content of the article.

Where in that article did you see anything about the touch screen being a disaster?

Short APPL? Err... go nuts. We'll let you know when it hits $150.

Did you even read the article?

Buy more shares.

Looks like Mr. GradyBaby has a grand total of 1 posts.

Nice trolling. Now no one will buy an iPhone thanks to you!

Id probably consider changing you investment strategy to something other than asking complete strangers on the internet what you should do. Just saying...

Dvorak is a total idiot when it comes to...everything. he is pretty much just a mac troll. Check out it track record before listening to him. he claims to be an expert, but he is almost always wrong.

the keyboard will take some getting used to, but so was text-messaging using a numeric keypad.

The learning curve will be much shorter.

The author isn't even convinced of the subject on which he's writing. Seems like an arbitrary article to me. I don't understand why it was written, or especially why it was posted...

[macaddicted]

Oh no! Dvorak doesn't like it?!? Whatever shall we do?


Yeesh. Talk about validation, it doesn't get much better than this.

[Trent0341]

Good call on the mouse being a failure.

all they have to do is make it exactly the same as the one jobs was using in january adn they're set

[marksman]

Dvoraks have always hated QWERTYs

How could you sell short? It's been gaining roughly $1 per day for weeks. When was it higher?

It could go to $140 according to alot of analysts. Checkout msn money or Scotttrader.

That article is badly argumented. First, sell on good news and buy on bad news? He's giving us bad news, so why is he telling us to sell? Second, his description of the source, a voice on the phone, is just shady and distrust-worthy. Note, I'm not saying he's wrong, but he should have written the article better. For all we know the keyboard could be bad, just as much as it can be good. David Pogue, I think, had similar negative things to say about the touch-screen.

And GradyBaby, edit your original post and put the right link in there. Like this it's just confusing.

disaster or no disaster .. we'd know when we get our hands on one .. for now .. all we know is that no one has succeeded in getting one right .. lets hope apple nails it OR you always have that 14 day money back guarantee ..

Sir, Are you a troll?

1 post, very misleading title, irrevelant article (based on the title of thread), sounds like a troll to me.

Actually, if you do the opposite of what Dvorak says, you'll almost always be right. So he is an expert, in a strange way. ;-)
