> it does seem that iPhones are now overpowered for... well... phones (they are pretty much last-gen console/low end PC level now, or will be soon)
The race to idle means that we still have room for more powerfull mobile CPUs. It's just that the extra power will appear as extended batttery life at the marketing material.
Anyway, I think the current generation is very near "good enough", people may switch once more, but the fast replacement of phones are getting to an end.
