David Weiss’s Prediction Score Card for Wednesday’s Event ★

I’ll go with yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, no, yes, no, yes, yes, yes, yes, no, no, no, no (but I hope), no, no, yes, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, yes, no, no, no, no.

And, even cooler, just today Apple approved Weiss’s new iPhone app for aggregating such rumor predictions, the aptly-named Prediction.

Macworld’s Coverage of Apple’s Quarterly Results and Finance Call ★

Everything is up year-over-year: Mac sales, iPhone sales, revenue, and profit. Here’s Apple’s press release.

Update: Here’s Tim Cook on the conference call, regarding Apple’s relationship with AT&T:

“As you know, AT&T has acknowledged that they’re having a few issues in some cities, and they have plans to address these. Have personally reviewed these plans, and they have high confidence that AT&T will address them.”

This tone gibes with what I’ve been hearing lately, which is that Apple is sticking with AT&T in the U.S. for now. I expect the 3G version of The Tablet to debut as AT&T-exclusive; if I’m wrong, I expect it to debut on both AT&T and Verizon.
