Apple Posts $818 Million Profit for 3rd Quarter 2007

So I'm guessing they sold 250k on the first weekend then another 250k during the rest of July.

Then if they sell another 250k in Aug and Sept then I guess that will make the 1 million figure by the end of the sept quarter?

Where are you getting these numbers? Yahoo sez:

After Hours: 134.94 down 2.32 (1.69%) as of 5:00PM ET on 07/25/07

Unlike normal trading day, after hour trading is extremely volatile. So, don't post any numbers here - it will be wrong after a couple of minutes.

So, with 146K phones activated, and 270K sold in the first 30 hours, that means 46% of people who bought iPhones in the first two days didn't activate them in the first two days!!!

How can that be? Am I so different than so many other people that bought them? I couldn't wait to get home and activate mine. I know the delay would be unavoidable for some people, but 46%???

Maybe ATT is completely BS'ing about only 2% of people having activation issues. Or maybe their accounting is sloppy and they really only got the first day's activation numbers or something. 😕😕😕

I kept telling people that a 40% figure on whacky activations problems was right.


And I was right.


AT&T was trying to cover their *** for their screw-up.

The 270,000 is for Friday and Saturday and does not include Sunday. Im guessing it was over 400000 the first weekend.

Jobs stated that he expects sales of 1 million iPhones by the end of the year. Which means he expects to sell a lot more than 1 million.

He said end of next quarter not year.end of sept.

2.25 million iphones american by the end of the year.
.75 euro iphone sales by the end of the year.

iphone jr. = 2million sales?

total end of year: 5 million units?


(assuming the jr is real.)

thoughts?

What are you talking about? Who's sad about this (besides you, apparently)? 😕
 
Guys, just remember that After Hours trading is never stable by any means. This isn't the regular market.

Nevertheless, Nasdaq After Hours quotes show $145.50. WOW

After hours trading is thin and more volatile, but not that volatile. The real problem is I was viewing quotes delayed by 15 minutes. I'm grateful that some people were willing to post their real-time quotes. I was seeing AAPL down by as much as $3.00 in after hours.
 
After Hours
High: $ 147.44

Thats over $10+ from closing time - so the aapl went up 10 bucks in less than 40 minutes 🙂

The 270,000 figure includes online purchases. It also likely includes over 100,000 customers switching from another carrier. Many of those switchers can take longer than expected and have mistakes in the number transfer that AT&T would not include in the 2% number. However, they wouldn't successfully activate in the first 30 hours. Those lags could easily explain the number difference.

Granted, but the closing price after-hours is the opening price for the regular market tomorrow. I can live with that!

Yeah, but we've still got a bit of time until market opening time tomorrow. Granted, all that could mean is "more time to go up", but it could be more time to stabilize after overvaluing too.

Well, I seriously doubt they sold 100,000 iPhone docks and headphones in the first 30 hours since those are included with the iPhone, so I highly doubt that makes up much of the total. I'm sure this is a question that will be asked during the conference call for clarification, so we'll see what they say.

That could very well also include things like cases, which could very well approach the 1:1 in sales, especially since I could see some buying multiple cases per iPhone (different colors)
 
They are almost confirming new Macs in August.What kind I can guess at.Since they project a higher component cost we can see backlit LCD iMacs.
