And I bought it just a couple of weeks ago at 209! Woohoo. Smile

I guess this shows the enthusiasm for its upcoming iTablet. I've read articles speculating that it will revolutionize newspapers, books, everything. Ok. Just as long as the stock keeps going up.

Do you buy stock in companies whose products you greatly believe in?

Smashwords have secured a deal to put their ebooks onto the ipad. I have sold a number of ebook versions of MPFM on Smashwords but not enough to spend hours reformatting the manuscript to make it acceptable for "premium distribution." I might change my mind if the ipad becomes as popular as the ipod. Meanwhile, it seems like you made a good investment, LC.

The funny thing is, I've never been an Apple fan. Their products are overpriced, and the ones I've bought have been glitchy and needed repairs.

I've been actually hoping for a pullback so I could buy some more -I'm afraid that if I DO buy more now, that will signal its collapse, lol.

I already reformatted my books for Smashwaords when I first joined but had problems when I added the ISBN to them today. Well with just one really and I seem to be having the same trouble now. Hope to have it sorted soon, fingers crossed.

Careful. I think iPad is going to be their alltime big flop. There's no way to know yet, but the next couple of months should show more.

Good news, Billy. Lulu are putting self-published books onto the ipad:
