Imagine you were selling just about anything, lets say lemonade for instance, and you had a pretty good location and a great product due to mom’s recipe, and you had the proper red Solo cups instead of some cheap Styrofoam ones. So you have a great product, a good location, and some pretty packaging, so you are going through about 9,000 cups a day on average.

Then, BAM! All of the sudden you were selling three times that at 27,000 cups a day. Now of course this was brought about by a price cut from $.99 a glass to $.66 a glass, but you were selling so many more glasses that the lower price didn’t matter and the lemonade became cheaper to produce. Well replace all that nonsense with iPhones and all the numbers except the price are the same.

You read right, according to Munster’s reports, in order to go from the 270k iPhones sold the previous quarter, plus the 594k iPhones sold up til September 5th, and then reach a million by the 9th, Apple would have has to sell 136k iPhones or 27,000 per day. The report also says this sudden spike should mellow out from a sudden 200% increase to a constant 50% increase in sales. No word on what affect the holiday season will have on iPhone sales especially since it’s the first phone I know of that you don’t have to buy a plan to buy, you can literally just buy the phone and walk out.
