Actually, from the sound of it, the iPhone 4S launch is not even in that quarter.

Wow, thanks for pointing that out. That completely invalidates one of invalidates one of the alternate headlines.

I think this is the key point here. I believe that these estimates would have been met had 4S sales been included in the earnings.

Did these analysts assume that 4S sales would be included? Are they simply overlooking those sales for next quarter?
