I never said that.

Apple is merely showing that it is only another big manufacturer that has had a hell of a good run, but the charge is over, the great ideas are not still coming out. This iPad (3?) shows that. We have now had a lack luster iPhone and now a so so iPad. Two Apple mystique disappointments in a row. People are asking "what is going on?"

The luster is not as shiny as it was, and should decrease further.

But Apple lovers need not despair, their money is still good, they will still be able to buy Apples, but those pesky Apple doubters will grow even more annoying.
How about a gentleman's bet. I'll bet you, come this time next year, Apple will have made more money in 2012 then they did in 2011 (or whatever their fiscal year is). If I win you can't post anything about Apple for one month. You win I won't post anything about Apple for one week. (I think I deserve odds).

What do you say?
