How much of their worth is tied up in AAPL or locked in overseas accounts that are difficult to pull from?

Not enough to hurt them. Wall Street has just decided to punish Apple until they succumb and do the things that analysts want them to do:Buybacks and bigger dividends. There really is no good reason for the stock fall, in much the same way there is no good reason for Amazon's stock to be doing well.

AAPL is one of the most attractive stocks on the market. Unbeatable revenue streams, cash and assets to grow through acquisitions, and some of the hottest items on the market. Their P/E is a ridiculous 10. By comparison, Google's is 25, Microsoft's is 15, and Amazon's is 3500. Samsung's is also low, 9.61. Of those 5, 4 control their own mobile ecosystem. The odd man out will eventually just be another HTC.

You missed part of the point to the question. Apple's large wealth is partly associated to AAPL value, so when it drops, it's not good for Apple. They still have enough to weather some storms but losing total value like that is never a good thing.

Warren Buffet once advised Steve Jobs to buy back some of their stock to help maintain it's value. He was ignored, look how that played out. It's not Wall Street punishing Apple, it's sound business strategy.

Poor stale iOS UI. Even sheep get tired of the same-old-same-old after a while.

Actually this is what happens every year around this time, as anticipation for the new model grows. Lets just hope it's actually new this year, and not a rehash.

It'll be interesting to see what comes with the next gen iPhone.

I'm really looking forward to what Apple is going to do next. Unfortunately, its looking like 2013 is a bust and the iPhone 5s is not much better then the iPhone 5 =(

Looks like I'm getting me a SGS4!!! Sorry Apple... I just cant wait any longer for you to get your sh!t together!
