I'll consider this debate dead (and won) unless you have evidence to the contrary, of course.
Not quite true, in Asia nowadays you can walk in and ask for an iPhone4 and get one immediately. So definitely the days of "they can sell every single unit they can manufacture" are over. They have plenty of stock.

And while they are still growing unit wise they are growing much slower than the market as a whole --- just like Nokia and RIM did last year. RIMs sales figures have been going up, however, nobody has declared them big winners, as far as I can see.

So if you think that increasing sales at a much slower rate than the competition and the market as a whole is an Apple "victory", then you have indeed "won" the debate.
