"If you add Q3+Q4 it shoud amount to 70% yoy growth... that means anything less than 36mil is not keeping up with market growth..." Here are a couple facts for you: Smartphone sales for Q3 2010: 80m Smartphone sales for Q3 2011: 115m (43% YoY growth) Smartphone sales for Q4 2010: 101m Smartphone sales for Q4 2011: ?? m (??% YoY growth) Numbers aren't in for the just ended quarter, but it's not going to be 70% growth, nor will it be enough to bring the 2nd half average up to 70% from Q3's 43%. Care to revise your point? Will you concede that Apple will most likely beat whatever the smartphone market growth happens to be (I'd guess 40%)?
