Apple doesn't really play catchup, their playing field is almost always behind the leading edge, because they don't care (unless they think it hurts their sales). What's the last thing they did that pushed forward the mobile market. High res displays? Before that? Probably the iPhone itself, and that was a software innovation most of all.

It's not difficult to put in more RAM or a faster processor, with the amount of engineering they have they could do that, they just prioritize different things.

I agree the adoption is going to be the most interesting thing. They think that the market has been demanding the larger screen, I kind of think there's pent up demand from people waiting for the larger screen so they'll sell well, but I guess it could be the 5c all over again too.
