AAPL is a marketing / brand company. It's innovation and peak had a run for a few years, now suckers are still attached to it. But like said, a smart person invents, a genius steals. AAPL has not impressed anyone since the IPAD, IPHONE. Their next break through? No one will know, because they have issues w/ SAMSUNG!
I totally agree on this one. Since Steve Job's departure, Apple's new products no longer excite. It has been quite a disappointing run for Apple. Innovation, the prime key for Apple's success over the years is now gone and they're evident in the new products they make.
With the release of the iphone 5 and S3, which company do you think will come out ahead? Right before iphone5 i recall samsung being significantly ahead ... but when the iphone5 came out, nearly everyone went to get it. :(
I don't think it matters who's really dominating the market. What I think is more important are options for consumers.
