Well done Tomi for following up on the model I was only thinking about it a couple of weeks ago and had checked back to see if there was an update.
It is interesting to see that as he predicted they are struggling outside of the US - also I seem to think his model took the iPod Touch into account - I wonder how that might have affected sales.
He is predicting a solution to the texting problem perhaps with a texting keypad - I wonder if this will be real or virtual - a virtual one would be a neat a solution as they could continue to provide a single platform and provide the keypad to all the existing users also.
I also think that the SDK might mean that sales leap forward (depending on the details) and they still have the 3G model to pull out of the bag at some time this year.
I wonder when the iPod Touch will hit larger volumes than the iPhone - this must be possible as there are no geographical boundaries to the sale of the iPod Touch (as far as I know).
