I am a little confused about the hot sale of iphone 4s too. If you put the iPhone 4s with Samsung Galaxy S2 (the most popular Android phone for now), Galaxy S2 is a  far better choice than iPhone 4s in my opinion:

4.5" display against crappy 3.5",

4G against 3G network speed

2M Fornt facing camera against basic VGA

Replacable battery against fixed battery

Expandable microsd against fixed choice

I think the hot sale of iPhone 4S is more contributed to Apple's built-in momentum in the market. What will happen when the momentum is gone  and there is no revolutionary product come out for the another two year? 

The new iPad is good, but competitors can catch up Apple quickly if Apple continue its slow movement.

The iPhone 4S was also supposidly received in a lukewarm manner and it then went on the ste a sales record for Apple for a quarter. I think it is too early to say the new iPad is not exciting or it shows a slowing of innovation. The sales numbers will speak louder than words in this case.

Remember those drawings of the angel on one shoulder and the devil on the other? Well, my devil is saying "Go ahead, get one. It's cool. It's better than that weighty circa 2005 Dell you've been carrying around for work. It'll do everything you need."

And then the angel whispers, "But Apple lies about battery life. Think about your iPhone -- everytime you're away from an electric outlet you feel a growing sense of panic. You made that kid unplug his Leapster at the airport so you could plug in your iPhone. And do I really need to remind you about Foxconn?"

AHHh! I'm glad I just don't have the money.
