I just think the $225 target price of apple is just too far fetched. Apple is going to fall back to what it was late 4th quarter of last year. The economy is just to harsh right now for companies like apple and I think the release of the 3G IPhone is just to early. People right now are more concerned with the basic necessities of life not luxury.

There will be demand though. Just this week, 3 of colleagues started arming themselves with the flat phone....

Apple will remain bullish, and I can see them hitting the $225 target. Computer sales generate the majority of their profits (something like 60%), and I predict the trend of switching from PC to Mac will continue. The iPhone will continue to shine as well, especially with AT&T's generous subsidy that brings the consumer price down to $199/$299 for the 3G iPhone (8gb/16gb respectively), and AT&T will even let current subscribers upgrade to a 3G at those prices. Good luck with your short...
