"That's some wild optimism there!"

Optimistic as well as lazy analysis. The launch of the iPad may have exceeded the launch of the iPhone, but that doesn't mean it was the bigger hit, nor does it follow that the next big thing from Apple will be a bigger hit than the iPad. $17B in first year revenue is just bonkers-- it implies that 50 million $300 iWatches get sold. (More than 1 in 10 iPhone users).

And yet, even with these unrealistic projections, we are only talking about maybe $3B in operating earnings? An extra $3 eps?
