A DigiTimes morning report states that out of Apple's announced iPhone shipments of 47.8 million units in the fourth quarter of 2012, only half of that volume was from the latest iPhone 5. Supply Chain sources told DigiTimes that the iPhone 4S still contributed about 20 million units to Apple's bottom line. For now it would appear that the iPhone 4S is positioned as Apple's value play. The report states that the strength of Apple's iPhone 4S sales were unexpected. The report interestingly added that Pegatron Technology is the company who makes the iPhone 4S and iPad mini and not Foxconn.
