No you shouldn't.

The death of Steve probably had a good impact on sales of the 4S, so it should come as no surprise that apple is trying to make the legacy live on

Jobs himself would do that; don't get so upset.

Sure, but that doesn't make it ethically and morally acceptable.

And not upset, I would say dissapointed however with some pretty low expectations from apple I can't say I am.

True dat.

Apple is getting free marketing worldwide from the death of Jobs.
Hell, I live in Kuwait, and it was all over the news that day, EVERYONE at my university was talking about it as well as praising the 4S...
... if your phone is not an iphone, then it's crap, even my friends tell me that I should've went with the iphone when I show them my Galaxy S2 :/

Where does it say that Apple plans to do anything tying the death of Jobs to any products? The article merely pointed out that the iPhone 5 was that last product that Jobs was involved with. An outside analyst then made some predictions based on consumer behavior that may or may not come to pass. Quite a jump to go from last product Jobs worked on to Apple capitalizing on his death and tying it to said product.

The release of iPhone 4 and his death the next day is pure coincidence... nothing more.
