Let’s be honest, the blackberry is a piece of crap. I have a blackberry and my wife owns an iPhone. Without a doubt, owning a blackberry is like having an Atari, while she has a PS6, some space aged device. Essentially, the blackberry is just a stupid email box/phone, while the iPhone is God. Nonetheless, due to primal pride, I shall not buy an iPhone, since that would be equal to caving into Mrs. Fly’s taunts. It’s like going to a restaurant and ordering the same dish; that makes no sense. If she orders the chicken, I will order steak and vice versa.
At any rate, the market still sucks. Luckily I am blessed with millions of dollars in buying power and will exercise such powers, shortly.
For broader market commentary and lessons on life, please grab a cup of coffee and enjoy the video below.

Why did Apple lock in with ATT? Seems lame, why not open the phone to all carriers? I would buy one if they were available on Verizon.
Watching the PPT to hit 2.20. 80% Cash atm.

I’m in my LSCC
Bought some COP,XOM waiting for some cheaper IOC
Jed, sees no reason to upgrade his Motorola 2004 Flip-Phone with built in camera.
I may not have millions in buying power, I do have hundreds of thousands.
I am exercising my God-given right to buy shit as you read this.
Good plan. Get ready for the mother of all dollar selloffs.

Long scalp SMH is a no brainer today.
The Storm 2 is a really good device fixing all of the predecessor’s faults but nothing competes with the app store.
Should help keep iphones out of the office though.
I don’t care either way, from the viewpoint of the technology. However, my stake in VZ leads me to call blasphemy.
Get with the times, its all about the Android based phones these days.
But seriously, besides the media hype, Android is some badass tech.
Why does the market feel like its down 300 pts ? My screens look bloody
On another note I’m pretty sure I heard Doug Kass use the word “EGREGIOUSLY” last night…very nice.
I’ll take a BlackBerry Tour over the iPhone any day. Oh wait.. I did.
Maybe you just need some good old BB tips Mr. Fly. All you need to use your phone for is e-mail, checking stocks anyway and oh yeah.. making a phone call!
Why do people get so excited to watch a movie or a t.v. show on a 5″ screen? I recall everybody wanting bigger screens, now that we all have them, the smaller the better. Let’s bust out the black and white military grade TVs as they had 4″ screens but were portable.
As far as the apps go. Apple owns that realm. But again, having 10k ways to waste time is not a good thing IMHO. Kids today can blog, chat, Skype and have 5,000 Facebook friends plus know all about Obama…
But if the power goes out… they are bored! And if you are at a store of any kind, nobody can make change.
In a way.. the cooler technology has made us all dumber in some ways and more connected as a society.
DVAX back to $2 from here @ $1.32
so what the F***, Now you have something against Atari? Pong is going to make a comeback.
First time I’ve felt fear in a while. Not in the markets, but personally. I like it. My mind is moving faster. Nothing like a kick to the skull to put a fire in your belly.
Perhaps you’d like to elaborate?
Didn’t mean to be cryptic. I mean my personal holdings are causing me fear today. I don’t sense fear in the overall market, just me, my shit.
Capice?
The Tick went to egregious levels earlier. Fear is all over, not just you.
It’s the mind killer, if you haven’t heard.

iPhone is ambrosial, undoubtedly, except for the damn AT&T network and occasionally having to watch a slow motion animated cartoon when you’re trying to do something fast like make a phone call.
Everyone is buying shit? It has worked out well the past few dips, but the $RUT and XLF look worrisome to me here to me. DRYS also shit the bed yesterday and its diarrhea continues to flow today.
mrkbill,
I have to agree. The quaility companies JAH, RAX, BUCY etc are getting waxed.. im on the side lines. 100% cash.
You know, I never wanted to call the Jerkies out, but I think they double-sided this one.
IOW, both guys are Jerkies, which is lame.
