The article specifically notes that the spikes happened when the new iPhones are released, not just announced. So, new Iphone envy is less of a reasonable explanation..than the release date usually coinciding with new versions of iOS being deployed.

Or that their new phone feels slower than promised, and those Googling are the owners of the new models?
