The launch of Apple’s (NASDAQ: AAPL) iPad had no effect on its shares. . Some analysts expected the stock would move higher. The iPad will almost certainly have incredibly impressive sales. It is different enough from its predecessors to be attractive, particularly because it works on new 4G super fast broadband networks. It may be that investors believe that, even with a new iPad, Apple cannot continue to almost double revenue quarter after quarter. There are problems with patent and trademark disputes which have swirled around the industry for a year. No one can say with any certainly that Apple will not lose one of the court challenges it has against its competition or that its competition have against it. Apple may have to pay fees of IP that are not anticipated now.
One of the commments made in the press is that iPad sales are large enough that they may eclipse total PC sales in the US once results are in for the next quarter.
