There really isn't any information available that supports this. If there is, I'd like to see it too.
But what most are looking at, is the insane amount of growth the AppStore has seen since its inception. That's what virtually all potential low resource developers are looking at.
With a killer app and proper marketing/recognition, it is possible to make something out of next to nothing on the platform.
Breaking into development on even a simple platform like the DS by contrast, is much more limiting (thinking about the story of that kid that spent several years of his life developing a DS game first and then trying to get a SDK, only to fail completely).
