“Apple Computer Inc., known for its secrecy about new products, has given the strongest signal yet it’s working on an iPod phone that analysts said could be released early next year,” Bloomberg News reports.
“‘The biggest part of (Wednesday’s) call was the iPhone,’ said Piper Jaffray Co. analyst Gene Munster, based in Minneapolis. ‘It was the closest we could get to the announcement of a new product from Apple.’ An iPod phone may be released in the first half of 2007, Munster said. Merrill Lynch & Co. analyst Richard Farmer pegged the release in the first quarter,” Bloomberg News reports.
“‘The company is investing heavily in iPod and iTunes engineering and is very enthusiastic about its products in the pipeline,” Oppenheimer said. The mobile-phone market may approach 1 billion units in 2008, Merrill’s Farmer said. Every 1 percent share of the market Apple captures could add as much as $3 billion to the company’s sales, Farmer told clients in a note Thursday after raising his rating on Apple shares to ‘buy.’ That’s based on a device that will sell for about $300, the New York-based analyst said,” Bloomberg News reports.

Has anyone actually bought an iPhone from Celebrity Mobile Stores INC? I am interested in purchasing one
ohh actually i bought the 4gb iphone from celebrity mobile stores last year november….and it was ok…am thinking of upgrading to 8gb 1.1.2………..you can go-ahead with them, their product is ok, but only it took 3 days for me to receive the package.
Sinclair..
Yes i have bought from Celebrity Mobile Stores and the transaction was very successful..
If i may say they are really the best..
You can buy from them OK.
The ad from Skymobile World Inc selling electrical gear and phones is a scam. This rolland coolman gets you to send the money via western union and then you do not get the goods. they then ask you to send more money because the wrong package was sent and it had extra phones etc in it. The only way they say they will release it is to pay their amount. In my case it was $2000 more. After numerous phone calls and over 50 emailsa i still have nothing and they say the only way they can rectify this is to send more money. I have reported them to the australian federal police and the relevant authorities
