Apple's Q3 2008 Financial Results on July 21st

Apple will be webcasting their 3rd Quarter 2008 Financial Results on July 21, 2008. The 3rd fiscal quarter encompasses sales between April 1, 2008 and June 30, 2008. As such, results from the iPhone 3G and App Store sales will not be included in the earnings report.

Recent reports however, have suggested that Apple's U.S. personal computer marketshare continues to increase substantially with 30-40% gains year-over-year.

While the iPhone 3G has been well received, most reviewers appear most impressed with the App Store and the variety of applications that are available. As David Pogue describes:

The App Storeoh, man, the App Store. Its a candy store, dude. Its 550 free or cheap add-on programs that make the iPhone (or the iPod Touch) do absolutely amazing thingsstunts a cellphone has no right to perform.

Impressive apps such as Pandora Radio, BeatMaker, a VNC client and a Role Playing Game have certainly raised the bar for future apps.

I wish they would have had more iPhones in all the countries. They really could have brought in record profits. People will just get another iPhone clone from another company and they lose the sale.

Square Soft needs to get all up in this App store, and make me Final Fantasy Tactics for the iPhone.

We also need to get some emulators in here, Nintendo, Gamegear, Gameboy, etc.
The emulators are legal, ROMs are illegal, right? (heck I'd pay $3-5 for good old classics)
There should be a separate area of the App store for eBooks too.

Grow up.

The App store is made for iTunes. I don't think Knock-off phones would work on the store and part of what makes it great is that everything is in one place. I don't think phone makers will be able to mirror the store with their own.

Grow up.

Why? His comment only displays how immature he is. Clearly mine does too, but I'm entitled as an anonymous person on the internet. He is a journalist writing for a very influential newspaper.
