One Million iPhones Sold

Share

Apple announced today it sold it's one millionth iPhone.  That 1,000,000 phones in 74 days.  It took them one week to sell one million songs at $0.99,  two years to sell one million iPods and about two months to sell one million iPhones at around $500 average (remember, they didn't sell many of the 4 GB iPhones - rumor had it that 90% of the iPhones were the 8 GB model which is how I did my math above).

So I'm curious. Are you more likely to buy an iPhone now that it seems a lot of other people have or did today's announcement not sway you at all?  The results of this informal poll are important - it sheds light on Apple's marketing: are they making this point for investors (the ones who sold the stock when it seemed like not that many people were persuaded to buy in the first 2 days) or to entice the late-majority customers to jump on the bandwagon today, especially combined with the new $399 price point.  Just add your comments below and let me know if you're more likely, less likely, or unaffected by Apple's press release today.
