such move might be needed to insure the long-term viability of even high-end iPhones in those markets Absolutely. It's time to stop consoling ourselves with the "owing 75% of the profit" mantra, or soon even that 75% will go, if it hasn't already started sliding. Just two years ago, Apple had 90% of the profit, and now we're supposed to be happy with 75%?
