Yeah I assumed that's why no one was jumping in. It's simpler than that for me. I think phone sales will surge because they will take share from the larger android phones.

By my WAG, Apple could increase their iPhone sales by 30 million a year solely from taking 25% share of the high end Android market. Assuming they continue to make $325 gross profit per iPhone, I estimate that results in a $7 incremental hike in eps. For the first year, the larger screen iPhone should also induce a one time upgrade wave from Apple's own userbase, but this is harder to quantify. To me, $50-51 eps in FY 2015 seems about right, with the iWatch chipping in $3 or so.

What are your inputs for assuming eps will grow more than that? Certainly possible.
