Blogged about this at http://andyswan.com/blog/?p=5 I think that the hype of this event is already priced into the stock and it will move lower afterwards.

K skipper appreciate you getting in front of this....love hubdub and big advocate....I think you guys need to take a look at your admin tools/processes. Seems like it should take 2 keys turning to suspend or resume a market....

Tbh, I think supers should be allowed to unsuspend too, that way I could have realized my mistake and unsuspended this market.

No, it's open for 48 more minutes. Closes at 4:00 PM ET every day.

Closed. Down. w00t. On a side note, did anyone else find the 3G iPhone a little "blah"? May still have to get one, but not as cool as I hoped.
posted 25 weeks ago
Hiya Andy - I guess you're new around here? Welcome! I have to agree with the new 3G, it didn't seem worth all the hype that's been going around for the past year. But then again, I think it would have had to be bullet proof and fly to do that, so...

I passed along your comment about VC/angel stuff to the hubdub team, I assume they'll be in contact. In general though, the comments are here for us users to chat about the markets. To be assured of getting an admins attention, you should use the 'Contact' link at the bottom - they're really great about responding to that.

Congrads on your Apple 'investment'. Looks like you'll have a nice percent increase this week! I took your advice and made a nice little bundle myself :)
