Jokes: Amazingly Simple Home Remedies
January 18, 2008

AT&T Stocks Down, iPhone Sales Up
January 14, 2008
As if anyone is surprised about this one, iPhone sales in the US remain strong and are more than likely responsible for a good portion of AT&T’s estimated 2.36 million new subscribers in the 4th quarter alone. What’s interesting is that following last Tuesday’s announcement from CEO Randall Stephenson regarding weakened consumer wireline business, the stock took a nose dive (10% in a day, ouch). Read more
