The year over year growth is pathetic but sales would have been relatively stronger 3Q12 because iPad3 and retina hype was still strong after spring launch. It has been a year now since an ipad launch and people who want iPads are waiting for the new ones at this point, so 3Q13 is weak. YOYG and market share should be up for 4Q. If it isn't, well, that will be interesting.
