Down 6%. Easing off at the moment.

40% gross margins ?
Wow..
Sell some stuff cheaper now guys.
AAPL is getting hammered after hours for missing consensus EPS. Give it a week or two...
Didn't Apple (founded by SJ as Apple Computer) just sell a record number of computers (at least those computers that weigh over 1 kilo)?

Do note that it takes Samsung - currently the top Android box-maker - 1 year and 7 months to sell nearly as many Galaxy phones as Apple sells iPhones in little more than two quarters.
The iPad number was a big disappointment. Unlike a phone which everyone has, not everyone needs an iPad. Many are sticking with laptops and don't want to spend money on two devices.
I agree that iPhone sales will continue to grow but the recent (last year) growth in the stock price was directly related to the new iPad business whose growth rate may now be slowing down.

How many times do you have to be told THAT number isn't apples to apples.
There are MANY Android phones in the marketplace. There is ONE iPhone sold by Apple.
You don't need to skew the results. Apple did well this quarter. Why you feel the need to drag android/samsung into this is beyond me as it reeks of insecurity.
Please ask an adult to explain the difference between "gross margin" and "profit".
"Apple also sold 11.12 million iPads during the quarter, up 166 percent over the year-ago quarter"
Thats a disappointment ?
166% increase ?
What do you want a 300% increase ?

I'm pretty sure it is exactly apples to apples. One phone model to one phone model. It just isn't the comparison that you personally are interested in.
Guidance of $9 EPS ? Man. Apple must have some stuff coming out January/February.
Apple posted record iPad sales, 11 million. The previous record was 9 million.
Yes, in only a single quarter. That's over twice as many as Mac sales in a typical quarter.
As far as the tablet competition goes . . . there isn't any. Their numbers in total barely register by comparison. It's very much turning out to be an Apple-led Post-PC era, with an ever-expanding iPad market (while the rest of the market is actually contracting.)
Yes, one tablet to rule them all, it seems.
Nothing special; this will just be the holiday (historically the biggest) quarter.
