Liveblogging the earnings call here:

AAPL is up nearly 11% in after hours trading....word on the Street:

  • Revenue: $10.167 billion, up from $9.608 billion in Q1 2008
  • Profit: $1.605 billion, up from $1.581
  • EPS: $1.78 per diluted share vs. $1.76
  • iPods: 22.7 million
  • iPhones: 4.4 million
  • Macs: 2.524 million

Macs (Laptops) and iPods (Touch) were way higher than anticipated (except by some ;).  And somehow they managed to increase margins!?

Every other company around the world is laying people off and massively cutting spending and displaying abysmal sales. Apple? Breaking record earnings. Was like the Oil companies when Gas prices were $4 and $5 a gallon.

Glad to be of help...

iPhone 3g, new MacBook, and a new Nano for the wifey. Soon to get a Time Capsule and 24" display. Now I hope they will give some more hours to the part timers who were cut back in November.
