I think we can't judge if this product is disappointing or not by the sales number. I am not saying that the 4S is not a good phone, but the sales are obviously heavily influenced by the Steve Jobs death. Many of my friends who weren't considering a new phone are now going to buy it because it is the last iPhone launched with Jobs alive.

It's not obvious to me at all. Aside from your friends experience, what are you basing this on?

Sorry, I misused the term obvious. It just makes a lot of sense to me.
