I'm not convinced Apple cares about market share in the smartphone war. They are still destroying the competition when it comes to profit and in their world, that's what matters. Google's game with Android is to get it into the hands of as many people as possible.
Apple's goals differ from the idea of getting as many users as people. The company seems to be more focused on getting a number of people who will almost absolutely buy their brand. That's their strength imo. How many businesses can boast of guaranteed lines outside their stores for hours when launching a product? (Bear in mind that lining up is very irrational for a lot of those who spend hours there seeing as they can often grab it online or from a carrier store directly. )
They operate by a follow the money mindset and it works excellently for them. Get people to love your product - this loyal customer we seek in the startup world - and you're in very good hands.
Kudos to them for their work
