Don't worry about the article - give it another week and it will probably be closer to 2 million sold. Its not like Apple has to force people to buy the iPhone - from what I read yesterday, if you aren't in the Apple Store in Chicago the moment the shippment arrives you pretty much miss out on getting one untill the next shipment arrives either later that day or the following morning.

Indeed they do. They are working on the theory that Apple classes as "shipped and paid for" buy the Telco as "sold" in the accounting books at Apple which techincally speaking is correct, although actually "in circulation" aka "purchased by the end customer" is still the next step and would be a lower number and yes, Microsoft has a similar practice with moving with boxed copies of Vista. The main difference being that people actualy want iPhones :D

All Apple has to do is to have sold 10 million or more iPhones by the end of 2008 and it will have beaten the analysts predictions and Steve's claims, the question then becomes; by how many units did they beat the number - only just and the share price will drop, absolutely killed it - and the share price will go up ;) how ever if the guideance for the next quarter is too conservative, as it normally is, the share price will shed about $10 -+. Such is the life of AAPL stocks.


Lmao, He is in full flight now.....
