What this analysis is missing, is that there are multiple times more iOS users (and therefore potential customers) than there are Mac Users. They set a lower price on iOS with a hope for making it up in unit volume. However, they're realizing now that unit volume being similar to Mac, prices must go up. I agree it's not as valuable a platform as the Mac, but it's also probably not 1/5 as valuable.
- ehurrell 12y agoIs this the entire story? It's true that there are many times more iOS users than OSX users, but what percentage of each are their target market (who I would call 'power users')? Panic make great apps (I use them on both iOS and OSX), but I expect not everyone using iOS is a potential customer for a (great) ssh client, while a much higher percentage of OSX users use it because they want a Unix that has $Mac_Feature.
