joining us now is angelo zino to talk more about apple. good morning to you. thanks very much for joining us. it's a tough act for apple to follow on two levels both following their last quarter results which were a blow-out and also tech results in general over the last week. can they meet expectations? >> so we actually think they will meet expectations. in fact we actually think they will likely beat expectations so our expectation is $2.18 in earnings on revenue of about $56.7 billion, so slightly above the street. right now, we're looking at 56 57 million in iphone sales. that's going to be the key to the quarter. apple is going to need to blow the number out given their recent success in prior quarters and i think investors for the most part are going to be looking at seeing if they can top the $60 million level. still a drop from the $47. -- 74.5 million. nonetheless, it's growth north of 35%. overall, we expect a very good quarter from them. >> angelo given its large international customer base, how much of a negative impact will the stronger dollar ha
