Hello 1 millionth iPhone
Apple has just announced by way of a press release from Cupertino, that the company has sold it’s one millionth iPhone effective this morning. Given all the hype and mania surrounding the handset, it’s important to remember that it has only been on the market for roughly 2 months (74 days, to be exact). Pushing a million units of anything, let alone something of this cost in such a competitive market, is a Herculean feat. In the press release, Steve Jobs notes that it took them almost two years to sell the same number of iPods. Given the recent price drop, we’re confident that the numbers will continue to rise in Apple’s favor, though it will be interesting to see if the new iPod Touch affects a change in sales rates. Whatever the case, and regardless of your feelings about Apple and the iPhone, a moment of acknowledgment is in order…..there, feel better?
nothing new here, everyone knew they were selling alot of units. Pretty impressive number though. The Holidays will be very big in Apple world.
I actually got my iPhone @ 6:03pm on 6/29. I would like to know if anyone got one quicker. I wish they would announce where the first iPhone was SOLD is at, yanno for my ego
P.S. Im hungry I could go for some Ringles, ROFL…
lol, that would be some bragging rights to have the first one sold.
emmm, Ringles – pictures Homer drooling.
Anyone else getting a Oil of Olay ad on here? BG, that has to be wrong, what are we 60 yr old women? The others are all Sprint for me.
So you are the first IDIOT!!! Jajajaj!!! IDUMB!!!
That’s cool, I’m still not on the bandwagon. But hey… Kudos 2 apple!
Yay? :-/
I’m not a big fan of the iPhone.
It simply didn’t work for me. I need a keyboard, plus several other features it lacked.
I’m “glad” it worked for all those other people, but honestly, there are going to be millions of people that simply won’t be “able” to use the phone.
Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit. Das a lotta iPhoners out here…and who knows if the WM6 (leaked) upgrade bricks my Blackjack I could be next.
Thats alot of toys to sell in two months.. lets just hope they didn’t use that lead based paint on these.
not to be the dumb one…
but are all of those in the usa?

yes. unless unlocked they are all on ATT and you must have a US address to activate. Their are some unlocked ones but very few. They have not begun selling outside the US yet.
You know, I was at the att store today and almost bought one and then the keyboard was the major non-selling point for me, anyone else have that problem?
(and the lack of video recorder)
sorry but i am as fast on it as i am on the BB 8800
Of course it takes some getting used to but it works
well once you you get used to it. I guess like
any other new device. Just my opinion.
