Thursday Highlights: Does Apple need a new hit product now?

Morgan analysts thinks iPad sales will be lower than expected thanks to supply constraints; Henry Blodgett says Apple fans are in a reality distortion field if they believe AAPL's stock drop are simply stock manipulation; but Goldman says shares are a "buy" right now, setting a $760 target; Foss Patents report on Apple's plea to the "U.S. appeals court for full exceptional attention to Samsung injunction case"; ABI Research believes Apple's iPhone market share to hit peak at 22% in 2013; beta of 10.8.3 hits the dev channel; want to set up FileVault on your Mac, but don't know how? Mactuts+ to the rescue, and Macinstruct shows how to create a USB recovery drive for OS X; Amazon announces their MP3 store is optimized for iPhone, iPad, seen as attempt to eat at iTunes' lead; more in our General Interest section; over in Japan word out that Google's Nexus 7 outsells iPad over holidays; petition calling for Apple to remove NRA iPhone shooting app; Walmart's StraightTalk for iPhone has a data cap despite "unlimited" marketing; Sprint will offer Total Protection plan for iPhones beginning this month, for new iPhone users only; Apple seeking person to "evolve Siri as a distinct, recognizable character"; find the latest of Apple's patent applications down in our Hardware/Software section; Macworld UK reviews WD's My Book Studio USB 3 drive, and PCWorld compares SSDs, HDs, and hybrid drives; Keycard is an iOS app that will lock/unlock your Mac based on proximity; Cyrus Sanati at Forbes believes Apple is in danger of repeating Apple of the 1980s where "rigid adherence to its rules and a secretive and closed culture" will threaten company's dominance; Brent Simmons hopes Apple never releases a smart watch.
