    "Apple (AAPL) is still an iPhone company," says one of the more bearish Apple analysts on Wall Street.  It's hard to argue with what Pacific Crest analyst Andy Hargreaves penned in the wake of WWDC. Apple's new HomePad is kind of sexy to look at, as TheStreet's tech team points out. But, is it game-changing? Not exactly.
