Hey George here is a clue. They are "selling" the phone not giving it away like samsung or nokia. The profit is over 50% on those phones u tard

sear George Hamilton from sweden I need you to notice something in the rating site you posted

notice how many ratings your nokia got and how many people reviewed the phone

that's 58 for the nokia and over 1700 for the iphone

I am glad you like your N95 because you can keep it

at $399 the iphone is a bargain compared to the $579 Nokia

Maybe your buddy Big Toni S. from Bernstein can find the missing 1M iphones under the Blaney Stone?

Yeah Apple will easily beat their estimates of 10 mil

I think by year end they will have sold over 15 mil…

possibly closer to 18m depending on how well it does in Asia

and to think that's only a minuscule market share %

the stock can go to $300 this year

"That makes..let me count…a 0,7% market share worldwide."

Not bad…for a single model with a 800 € price tag… what about nokia?

iPhone is really world famous in all over the big USA! Outside the USA it is just one in many.

It has a 2 Mpx camera, no HSPA and no GPS! That´s what we here in Europe call primitive.

And regarding customer satisfaction…

Yes, the iPhone is pure US-hype. Nothing for us in Europe. We like devices more advanced than you.

Yeah, but more importantly they are gaining momentum and expanding their niche in the market. I excited to see these reports finally coming out. I'll be perfectly content to watch my stock go up up up. I think you'll see AAPL @ 160 by the next quarter earnings report and then we'll see 200 in the summer.

Just imagine what would happen if iPhone has about 2% of handheld market. I have one right now and think why wouldn't anyone want to have one.

Yeah George…..compare it to those crappy Nokia or Samsung handsets the carriers give you for free for signing a contract. It is high-end smartphone. Are you a dope or what ?

The iphone is out less than a year (remember all the version 1.0 warnings of failure) and it has the highest satisfaction rates, data consumption rates, and is already the largest mobile web browsing platform.

And all you can say is look at the total global marketshare ? That's just pathetic.
