The edge matters for investors. Yes, Apple can continue to trundle along making about what it does now for a good long while, but their stock is generally priced for growth (although that has been changing lately). In the meantime they have have Android (and eventually probably MS) swallowing their market from the low end up.
To me it seems very similar to what happened with the desktop market.

Yes, Apple can continue to trundle along making about what it does now for a good long while, but their stock is generally priced for growth That's true, but I don't care much for investors. I was happy with Apple in 2002-3, when it was 1/50 today's size, because it had the product I wanted: a bloody usable Unix that can run proprietary apps, and good hi-end laptops. I wish companies were less relied in investors and the stock market and more on their actual production and revenues. Then you wouldn't have some social BS selling for several billion dollars only to die out a couple of years later...
