This is an interesting point that's being made: that Apple's iPhone 5 will have a greater effect on the US economy than the Federal Reserve's recent announcement of QE3. It's interesting for two reasons which I'll go into in a moment:

In the face of "a suboptimal recovery" the Fed said it would persist until the outlook for the job market improves "substantially", but a sceptical Mr Warsh said: "The iPhone 5 is going to do more for the real economy than QE3".
Now don't forget what it is that the Fed has just announced  it's willing to do: purchase up to $40 billion a month's worth of mortgage bonds and securities. That's up around half a trillion dollars a year.
