I think you're absolutely correct here. I'll point out that they are a luxury product and among the wealthy, highly popular. And while they don't capture a large portion of the units sold, they capture a large portion of revenues. On top of that, Apple's market share has grown by 1/3 year over year while cell phone sales were flat.
None of this changes anything and think Apple should comply, but I see why they might. I guess I don't see a situation where they wouldn't complain. These companies are so emotional.
