>It was clear you needed a new phone and your current one just became a lot worse for everyday tasks. Not, it wasn't clear at all. In fact, gadget freaks aside most people don't care, and update after when the device is all battered and battery has had too many cycles, or in some 2 year schedule or so, based on what funding they get from their carrier. What's more, iPhones hold their resale second hand value just fine (better than any Android phone), which means lots of people also buy older models, and don't see the "latest and greatest" as a necessity.
