Apple will be webcasting a conference call on Wednesday, April 23rd to discuss their financial results for the second fiscal quarter of 2008 spanning January through March. The conference call begins at 2:00pm PDT/5:00pm EDT.
Please note that comments made during this call may include forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties, and that actual results may differ materially from these forward-looking statements.

On the Mac front, the early portion of this quarter saw the release of upgraded Mac Pros and Xserves just prior to Macworld San Francisco, with the new MacBook Air following suit at the expo. New Penryn-based MacBook Pros and MacBooks followed at the end of February.
This quarter also saw the release of Time Capsule, revitalized AppleTV and AirPort Express offerings, and higher-capacity models of the iPhone, iPod touch, and iPod shuffle. Also of note, Apple released a limited beta version of the iPhone 2.0 software, including a Software Development Kit (SDK) to allow developers to create third-party applications for the iPhone.
Apple's fiscal year begins on approximately October 1st of the prior calendar year, and their record-breaking Q1 2008 results were reported in January. Their outlook for this quarter, however, fell below analyst estimates raising some concerns about Apple's expected performance.
