A Big Unveiling- Even For Just Press and Stockholders

It’s official. Apple will be issuing a dividend to share-holders (a cash payment) of about $2.50. They will also be doing a stock buyback which will increase share value, and in theory rise the stock price. But why rise it? It’s already at $601 after passing the $600 a share mark today. Crazy. Microsoft by the way is at $32.20 a share. Another stunning fact. They sold 3 million new iPads in under a week. In comparison, Windows Phone 7 phones which have been around for more than a year and a half have 6 million total users. Incredible. So check out the conference-keynote at the link below for yourself.
