The effect has been relatively the same regardless of how many iDevices =
there are. Network Operators have seen spikes during Apple OS releases =
since they started. The only leeway I'll give you is that the original =
iPhone only supported 802.11b. With .11n and someday .11ac, the ability =
for these devices to consume data at a faster rate is also increasing.

This was in no way meant to be a lowball remark. But it doesn't take =
much searching to find people exclaiming how they have zero Apple =
devices or how they don't pay attention to Apple's "iJunk". I assumed =
(probably mistakenly) that the lack of knowing this is going to happen =
roughly 2-3 times a year was due to being 'too cool' to keep up with the =
stuff Apple puts out.
