"To use a car analogy, six years ago the iPhone was like a sexy new flagship model from BMW or Porsche. Today it's a Toyota Camry. Safe, reliable, boring. The car your mom drives. The car that's so popular that its maker doesn't dare mess with the formula." http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-19557497 Game changing innovations like the iPhone come out once every 15-20 years or more. The time between those huge leaps are marked by competitors slowly catching up to, or eventually overtaking, the original marketplace innovators. Sunrise, sunset.

Some of the iPhones were tough to get for a little while, but I think with the 4s you could get one pretty easily within a couple of weeks. It all depends on the demand and how well they anticipate it.
