In the meantime -- -- my co anchor Melissa Francis in California with some reaction to the latest news from apple with a key shareholder analysts.

That's right I -- that TD Ameritrade institutional investor conference and I'm joined by Paul Meeks of such -- capital.

Director -- As you've been a long time fan -- a big shareholder so we're getting drips and drabs of this announcement is -- is listening to it and sending it over to us.

499.

Dollars he said was the price point.

This is -- -- a lot of people have been saying earlier this morning we're talking about -- trying to compete with the Kindle fire being a lot cheaper what do you think about that price.

Wait for the price point I was expecting was probably somewhere between 215 -- Angry fifty so this a little bit higher -- on the other hand we need to have more details about the specs to make short that this is.

Actually a seven -- eight inch screen diagonal product which we would call the many.

Yeah that's -- we're looking for is really what's the -- that we haven't heard that yet all we Curtis that down the Wi-Fi is two times faster a little bit of information on the chips that.

What what missing a beat -- basically would be disappointing if this is just a new for ninety donor -- IPad sort of like the others as shareholder would you be disappointed that they -- come up with this meeting there would be cheaper and compete with the Kindle.

-- for -- the key driver for the stock is not this product gets the iPhone 5 in the iPhone 5 ramp.

I would like to see them be able to compete better on the a lower price point that's faced with the iPad but the problem with the Kindle fire and Amazon's product priced at 159 is yeah -- might drive a lot of demand.

But the problem is they've already said that there are selling -- cost.

-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Boy XL lot of them -- don't make any money.

Yet -- that's a great point apple also just said they just sold their hundred billion iPad -- -- think about that.

Not surprising -- been on a great trajectory and obviously it is a product that is highly demanded.

Does not gotten -- that I mean it's not about 9% in the past month do you think that that's a buying opportunity based on what we're hearing.

I think that between may wanna -- hesitating regularly.

-- remember -- firma bought the stock with an average cost of eight dollars and 25 cents -- share back -- here sorry let me hear -- because of -- previous seven point nine inches that's the -- that we were talking about seven to eight inches -- so -- is the one we're looking for at 499.

But we have to find out more about what the capabilities on maybe it's worth 109 yeah no more details we'll find out -- -- -- -- -- all these set their party.

Attack product reviews of -- next days -- weeks.

But I wanted her to keep going to get -- the companies coming out with the earnings in the few days she's always.

A little bit dramatic to try to buy something.

Regardless of what you feel about it right before -- announcement that the big got a point.

And again I worry a little bit more about iPhone 5 -- -- iPhone 5 ramp they do this product you know but the way I look at it is if you were -- Take a look at this company.

And regardless of what they do say they sold potato -- she didn't know the company generates one billion dollars of free cash flow per week yeah and so the way I look at it.

If you put a reasonable market multiple on the stock it's gonna go much higher over time okay.

All right Paul Meeks -- you so much in coming up tonight on money with Melissa -- is at 5 PM eastern we're still going to be here at the conference.

We have former governor Gray Davis -- -- wrestle with him about whether.

Environmental regulations are what's driving up the price of gasoline.

Here in California and of course are gonna -- all over this apple story don't forget FaceBook reports after the -- we're gonna drill down on those details as well.

A lot to get to that for now back to -- you're going to be wrestling with the former governor who.

Think -- analyst that's right that's.
