performs uptrends at Extended Hours trading to 153.50 (16:33 Hrs.
EDT).
AAPL was staggering at 146~147 level during Pre-Market trading,
opened low at 146.82 and get started to jump abruptly to 150 level
at 10 a.m (EDT). Although, many investors cash out to take profits

AAPL bids on 150.70 at 14:05 Hours (EDT)
I set my short-term SELL signal at 158 level, while the BUY signal
at 140 respectively. For mid-term investors that I would suggest
AAPL is a BUY & HOLD, while day-trade high rollers are
recommended to set a cut-off at 145 level. However, for those
long-term investors that I would suggest a BUY rating, AAPL should
reach to a relative high level of 180 in December 2007.

particular, for those who installed commercial hacking software to
bypassing AT&T SIM card and hacked to make compatible with
another cellphone carrier as well as unauthorized Ringtone
modifications tampering. Apple's future iPhone software updates
will soon to disable and cripple the hacked iPhone like a brick.
Guys! Don't even try to think about it.

iPhone violate their iPhone software license agreement and void
their warranty," the company said in a statement. "The permanent
inability to use an iPhone due to installing software is not
covered under the iPhone's warranty."
"This has nothing to do with proactively disabling a phone that is
unlocked or hacked," Phil Schiller, Apple's senior vice president
of worldwide product marketing, said in an interview. "It's
unfortunate that some of these programs have caused damage to the
iPhone software, but Apple cannot be responsible for ... those
consequences."
As with any Apple product, hacking into the iPhone will void its
warranty, Apple said.
