Some analysts are saying that AAPL may blow out the Decmber-ending quarter (Q1 for them), exceeding both the company's guidance, and the higher market analysts' consensus, but may fall short in the March-2013 ending quarter.

Company: $52 billion and diluted earnings per share of about $11.75

Analysts avg: $54.5 billion and $13.33 a share

Blow out: FY Q1 revenue of $58.3 billion and profits of $14.79 a share
