I think much of that 70% number is downmarket. Apple's competition is primarily Samsung, as well as the premium devices offered by Motorola, HTC, etc. (Though to be fair, I wonder how much of Apple's 30% is from older phones costing $99 or less with contract)

Yes, it is. Hence the huge margins gap.

No idea, that would be interesting to figure out.
