Well, it was a nice run for apple. Anyone who is buying or holding shares is an utter moron.
With the release of the new ios and phone it will be the last big thing, and pre order/surveyed potential buyers was already low. Without him as a marketer, innovator apple has nowhere to go but down. A big thing to is the codes have changed for app developers for the android base making it now easier to write apps for both platforms.
Many people aren't that happy now that everyone and their sister has an iPhone, they thought they'd be different and have a cool gadget not alot of others could afford. Now with the big red V, att@t, and now sprint(January) bringing it in it's only gonna get more watered down and cheaper. A race to the bottom is what you have.
Don't believe me, read any of the articles comment sections for sprint releasing the i5, loyal apple customers are not happy.
