Best of luck to the independents this quarter! They should be closest to the mark.
DT, do you see foreign exchange rates as much of a factor on gross margin?

In Apple’s two biggest countries (the US and China), the exchange rates are not a material factor. Gross margin, tax rate and OpEx are much bigger factors.

The disruptions in China will most likely have reduced sales.

No impact on Q1.

Quarter one didn’t extend past the 01/13/12 ? I’m not familiar with the cut off dates for each reportage period - but you are so definitive in your answer that I guess you mean the cut-off for the 1st quarter results was prior to the release of the iPhone 4s in China.

The cutoff for FQ1 was Dec 31. The iPhone 4S wasn’t released in China unit two weeks later.

You can’t do more, make more, be more, than the next guy, if you think like the next guy. Think different.

I like Andy’s posted numbers rather than mine. I’d reduce my iphone sales est to 32 M and nudge up the GM.

Where were you at, Cl4? I don’t recall you posting your numbers here.

You are pretty high on the iPad numbers. Unfortunately I think they will come in at about 13.5 million…

Hope you’re right about the EPS, PurpleApple!
