Do you guys have any idea how long it took for Apple to sell 1 million iPhones? For those wondering, it was 74 days. As for the iPhone 3G, it took only 3 days. Granted, the newest addition to the iPhone family has a lower purchase price (if you're eligible) and was released in quite a few new territories, but 1 million phones in a single weekend is nothing to scoff at.
With a million iPhone 3Gs out in the wild, one has to speculate just how many applications were downloaded through the App store. Actually no speculation is needed, Apple has announced that there have been over 10 million downloads in the first three days.
If I've done my math right (it's some pretty complicated stuff), the average iPhone 3G buyer downloaded 10 things from the App Store. That sounds like a pretty reasonable number. I initially snagged14 apps, how about you guys?
You missed the fact that owners of the original iPhone also download applications after having upgraded to 2.0. At least I did. :)
7 apps so far…
+1 …I too have the iPhone 2.5G and downloaded about 15 apps so far. It appears to me that the majority of the downloads are comming from the owners of the older iPhones?
can any body tell me what the iphone GPS is like because i head its really rubbish…

From the brief test I did at the Apple Store, the GPS didn’t really seem to do anything different for accuracy. Maybe because I was inside a big building but then again, I’ve never really needed to know EXACTLY where I was. If I did, I could always look up at a street sign, DUH!
Alex, I’d really take that article with a grain of salt. I have personally use both a Garmin (don’t remember the model but it was a $1700 one) and an iPhone (first gen NOT 3G thus NO GPS) to navigate by and the iPhone spanked the Garmin hands down. Garmin couldn’t even find Boston Logan International Airport. The Garmin units are nice to an extent but I’m not an idiot, I am perfectly capable of following directions on my own. When I get to the next turn I can click next and it gives me the next directions. Oh gee, it’s soooo difficult. Or even easier, just put it in list view. I use the Google Maps feature all the time and while it’s not perfect, it’s really, really good.
oooh cool – stupid article — really want iphone 3g!!!!!!!!!
iPhone is hot with consumers, no doubt; and will be a hot contender for enterprises too.
