One thing to look forward to (or not) when the iPhone 5 does come out margins will probably drop a few points. When you have a new form factor and new components you almost always have lower yields. A nice thought is that lowered margin guidance is because the iP5 will be out in June... but I think that's a big stretch.

IP4s has been great for margins 'cause they mostly had the manufacturing down pat after 16 months of the iP4.
