Apple has something huge up it's sleeve judging by the ginormous part orders its placing (according to Chinese trade papers).

Be ready to pull that Palm money back out if the Pre's release date isn't officially announced within the next couple weeks.. they drag their heels much longer and Apple is gonna do a Riverdance on Palm's tombstone come June.

AAAH, don't remind me. I was so close to buying a few thousand dollars worth of Palm stock in December, back at $1.50, but decided I couldn't justify the risk (which at the time was huge) and held off. In January, it was at $4, and I decided (stupidly, of course) that it probably had already went up as much as it already would until the release date. When it reached 8 or 9 in one week, but then backed down to $7.50, I finally decided to get in on it, (obviously less shares than I'd have bought at $1.50) and so right now I've made a few hundred dollars, but really, I'm kicking myself so badly for not going with my gut instinct back in December.

Well since we're not talking about my money anymore, I'd say they hit at least 12 dollars. (PALM is at 9 right now).

The same thing happen to me. I decided to use the money to pay student loans because i didn't think it was going to make any profit.... After doing some calculations when it was at 1.50 and what its worth currently... I would have made enough to pay a big piece of my student loans... but after a few days of a depressed look, i got over it and realize ill be happy when it get the pre.
