The 40% is relevant because it means Apple is taking most of the smartphone profits and it's just one manufacturer. I think with the long term trends we will see Android gradually replace the dumbphone market. Low end hardware, fragmented versions across carriers, and low margins of return as time progresses. Apple is aiming at the upper end of the market and I think they're succeeding pretty well if the profit share is anything to by.
