<p>Following yesterday's announcment for the iPad, <a href="http://web.streetauthority.com/gdi-sample.asp">Andy Obermueller</a> in his <a href="http://web.streetauthority.com/gdi-sample.asp">Government-Driven Investing</a>, asks, "Is the new iPad a reason to buy the stock?"

In 2006, he co-founded social media sensation <a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/tag/Twitter/">Twitter</a>, which traffics in content bites that are no more than 140 characters in length. He left his position as CEO a year ago (and remains chairman) and is now focusing on his newest endeavor: mobile payments. <a href="http://www.usatoday.com/tech/news/2009-12-29-mobile-payments_N.htm" target="_blank">He came up with the idea for his new company, Square, a year ago</a> and hopes it will revolutionize how money is exchanged. <br />
<br />
The first product that Square is bringing to market lives up to its name: it's a small cube-shaped credit card terminal that can plug into an iPhone's headset jack. The problem that the device is intended to solve is the swift and easy transaction of credit card payments for anyone. It was inspired by the plight of Dorsey's friend, Jim McKelvey, a glass artist who lost a $2,000 sale because he couldn't accept credit card payments.<p><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2009/12/30/could-mobile-payment-become-a-common-easy-reality/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Could Mobile Payment Become a Common, Easy Reality?</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2009/12/30/could-mobile-payment-become-a-common-easy-reality/">Could Mobile Payment Become a Common, Easy Reality?</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com">BloggingStocks</a> on Wed, 30 Dec 2009 10:40:00 EST.

The excitement over its much-anticipated tablet computer is growing, and word is a major launch event is planned for the device in January (keep an eye on San Francisco). Apple still hasn't admitted to the project, but that didn't manage to dampen speculation. <br />
<br />
Yair Reiner of Oppenheimer said in a note to investors this month that Apple could have a tablet out on the streets by the beginning of April. Brian Marshall, an analyst at Broadpoint AmTech, sees the product reaching shelves by the end of the first quarter. Marshall sees the stock continuing to push upward next year, as "people are coming back to the well."<p><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2009/12/28/apple-spikes-on-rumors-of-tablet/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Apple Spikes on Rumors of Tablet</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2009/12/28/apple-spikes-on-rumors-of-tablet/">Apple Spikes on Rumors of Tablet</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com">BloggingStocks</a> on Mon, 28 Dec 2009 09:00:00 EST.
