@NonZealot You are correct that iPhone sales will go up and down depending on the time of year and expected release of the next version. The same can also be expected to a certain degree with Android phones.
@drphysx This years sales have been phenomenal but all those new owners are now in 2 year contracts. Some of them will upgrade to the next latest and greatest no mater if it is subsidized or not, some will upgrade at the earliest possible time like a year later but a larger portion just want a phone and probably got the cheapest Android phone not caring what the OS is and won't upgrade for some time. This means the explosion in sales is not a given to continue.
