If you read my other threads: I'm not even close to being an Apple fan.
I even stated in this thread, that I absolutely don't like iPhones (kind of a MacBook Air fan, though).
And I really don't get your aggression.
Who cares?
We're talking about meaningless gadgets here.
And btw: I've got about 50 of those, so I really don't mind about a single manufacturer.
Just wanted to share an interesting anecdote, whether it's representative or not.
And btw: Equity price rarely is linked to actual sales figures, even less so to historic ones...
And: How should anyone pull off sales figures of iPhones and Android (Samsung) phones from a retailer such as Media Markt? You can believe the sales guys or not. But you'll never get insights into a single (minor) product group.
