There was a previous discussion regarding a bump in "12-weeks ending October 28 2012" iPhone sales, attributed (by me) to iPhone4S rollout.

Here of course one naturally suspects the long anticipated iPhone5 rollout provides a bump, which the article acknowledges without any clear delineation (stating that "older models" also contributed to the sales). Because it specifically cites AT&T accounting for a large part of the pickup without connecting those dots, one has to assume the facts are being tailored to a narrative around the leading sentence, supposedly taking marketshare away from "Google Android."

I suspect that Christmas sales will tell a different story, but who knows if Forbes will still be eager to cover that.
