Try speaking in larger or simpler terms, if that is the proper nomenclature.

Basically the days of 60% margin for the iPhone are over, and with the iphone being the lifeblood of apple, people are questioning its future. Not as "it's going down!", but more as in "is it any different than Microsoft or the other tech giants"? The iphone is definitively getting very long in the tooth, has barely changed since 2007 and the only significant change (0.5" increase) came after lots of market pressure - the same market pressure that forced apple to come out with a 7.x incher after ridiculing them for years. Unless apple can come up with another cash cow like the iphone, they'll become just another boring tech company.
