My general take is that Apple doesn't need as much RAM as they are better at memory management both in their code and in their rules and allowances for 3rd party devs. Even beyond the iPhone they have a history of being able to do much more with less.

That being said, I absolutely agree that at this moment in time they're running up against a wall. I think they're going to give a RAM bump either on the 's' iteration later this year of for sure on the 7 next year. I'd just be awfully surprised if that doesn't happen.
