Apple will soon have enough money to buy all their competitor manufacturers!
When Apple next announces their financial results, they should have close to $70 billion in the bank, which means they would be able to buy all their competitior manufacturers except for Samsung. That list includes HTC, Nokia, RIM, LG, Motorola, Sony Ericsson(Google and Microsoft aren't manufacturers they are platform vendors) While market value of phone vendors declines, Apple grows and they will one day have more cash than the entire phone industry.
