Not exactly but your point does raises the BIG question i.e. "Apple doesn't have any major new (iPod or iPhone level) thing in its pipeline". Yes, I agree with you on this front. Apple seriously needs a new game changing product for long-term investors faith in it. For the past 2 years they haven't launched anything radical except the iterations of their product line. Also, the upcoming iWatch (according to online reports) doesn't excite me at all as too much saturation already in market. The next product gotta be something that consumers will love it and will it use on daily basis.
