a smaller lower cost iPad is also in the works.

Although Samsung appears to have gained huge market share, I bet they're making nearly no profit on each unit sold.

  I thought they were bigger unless their market cap dropped in the past two years. I was talking about profit per smartphone or tablet device, which can't be that high for Samsung.
