I basically wrote a custom "durandal" to plug the missing infrastructure gap, however I must investigate durandal itself, i am sure it will add a little more sugar than my effort. Basically I built a dal access layer based on promises for d

Fact is, what goes up must come down eventually, apple has been riding on the back of seriously good innovations for a while and they possibly were overbought. The market gets jittery when it sees a stock to be over bought, no one wants to
