Just the plain design and beauty of the device and amazing things that you can do with it unlike ordinary cell phones. And yes with the upcoming iPhone SJ (iPhone 5) we can expect even bigger growth.

That kind of growth is unsustainable. Apple better keep developing desirable new innovative products - that's lots of overhead to maintain.
