“Some analysts claimed that the iPhone launch would be a failure if Apple failed to sell 100,000 iPhones during the first weekend. Based upon the limited data we have, we believe that number was exceeded in just the first two to three hours. Blackfriars’ prediction is that Apple will sell 500,000 iPhones this weekend, and based upon limited sales rates reported, that number now looks quite achievable,” Carl Howe writes for Blackfriars’ Marketing.
“The only question is whether the demand and iPhone supply is great enough that they might push past the million unit mark this weekend,” Howe writes.

Motorola and Verizon soon to announce the Pink SLIP?
1 million may be a stretch based on how many Apple could make, but certainly that number will be achieved as fast as Apple made or makes 1 million (be it this past weekend or in the next couple of weeks). All in all a great opening, with that many phones there are always a few problems, but the press has been terrific, better than I thought it would be after the launch. So Kudos to Apple! Now if ATT service would expand to my area.
It’s a stunning success and no amount of “iBrick” FUD is going to do anything about that.
OMG – Brilliant Take, MDN!
Buy AAPL !!!
Everyone knew it was going to be this big of a hit. I’m sad and glad though. I REALLY want that phone…. but, luckily for me, computers are that much better and I got the new 2.4 15″ MBP instead two weeks ago and I think it will hold me over till I can afford this phone. Anyone else agree? Or is the phone that great that I should have stuck with my 15″ PowerBook and got the phone first?
The MacDailyNews Take is LOL funny! Inspired!
Thanks for the laugh!
There is absolutely no doubt Apple will sell at least a million this weekend. The Michigan Avenue store in Chicago was swamped last night. I bet several thousand were sold at that store alone last night. But the real scary thing to consider: did Apple pull off the unthinkable and generate over $1 Billion in new sales last night. Call me crazy but it might have happened…..
Am I correct, the main problems have been with people keeping their old numbers, transferring to ATT??
On this note, how many service providers (IE: AT&T) could add a half million accounts in one week and NOT have a few problems. Selling the phones is easy whereas switching from other providers, who typically don’t like letting customers leave, is bound to cause some problems. It seems AT&T is handling it very well, all things considered, and is addressing coverage/bandwidth speed complaints at the same time.
MDN word: North, as in up north we don’t even have access to the iPhone yet. Boo HOoo cuz I’d buy two, even with the activation delays.
I’m still waiting, going on 20 hrs. to activate my iPhone. I’m not keeping an old number, I’m not transferring any number at all. I simply asked for a new number, and I have never ever had a cell phone before this. . . kinda bummed right now.
I think 250,000 more likely…1800 AT&T stores x 60 = 108,000 + 170 Apple stores x 1000 = 170,000. Plus they didn’t sell out.
(written slowly on my iphone)
DUDE to people who are being smart buying apple I bought it back at 66 in sep. SKILZ
Uh, should I get an iPhone even though I don’t need it?
I have a phone, it works pretty well, voice quality and signal are great. I also have a Mac at home and at work, and an iBook for on the road. Don’t really listen to music that much and I have a great digital camera.
So, all that would be a compromise on the iPhone, as good as it is. But, I’m feeling the pull of the masses, I MUST be missing something!
Girl at the ATT store just told me Apple was planning to sell 3 million this weekend. They sold 3 million yesterday.
I got mine last night and activated with no problems. A lot of the complaints other than those concerning delays in activation, are by people who seem to think it should be a Tablet Mac and not a phone. People complaining about lack of a file system, and lack of cut and paste. Its only a phone, and a great one at that.
Somehow I doubt the girl at the AT&T store would have access to that kind of info.
Just got back from the Apple Store at King of Prussia mall outside Philly. The place was packed, but I did get to play with an iPhone. All I can say is “liquid”!
The more interesting thing was that I saw 4 people (all middle aged men) walking around the store talking on their own iPhones. I asked each if they had just bought it and each person had bought their iPhone last night, had no problem with the activation process, had never bought a Mac, and only 1 of them had an iPod. BUT, they were all there shopping for their first Mac because of the experience they have had with their iPhone thus far!!!
Good thing a lot of people have their records on itunes, they would be broken otherwise!!!
My experiences with the iPhone:
No problems typing with one finger at all. Didn’t try both hands at once but don’t think it is possible anyway.
Liquid (as I said above).
No hitches in the GUI at all.
Internet works grrrreat!
And, wonderfully subtle take, MDN! Bravo!
@ Brau, Do you recall AT&T’s order book which run upto one million names?
Do you think that they may have had their phones posted to them by AT&T?
just a thought.
@ crabapple
Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying it’s impossible, but it would be a major coup to sell 3 mil phones in one night and I’m simply stating there is good reason to question such a claim amid all the recent hype especially considering the lowly position of a mere salesgirl.
That has to be the best MDN take ever!
@ Brau, I guess your judgment call has to be right, after all it is you she served in which case the impression she imparted on you was not one in which you were impressed by. She may have been quoting from the slaes manual she was made to study prior to the grand opening.
Let us hope that they are at least closer to that mark. I would like to see records tumble or set as a bench mark to other companies so that they can emulate what it is we the customers want and need from technologies hard or soft, edible or non-edible.
Apple was smart to start selling the iPhone at 6pm on Friday. The stock market had closed, in case there were some glitches. There was one actually, the slow activation of some customers, but the weekend will let that issue be drowned out by the positive reviews. Media outlets were fully staffed for coverage of the event all day Friday. Sales over the weekend (including Friday evening until midnight), when people can more easily get out their local Apple or AT&T Store to buy one. On Monday, Apple will no doubt make a big announcement about sales during the first three days.
It’s good to be an investor in such a competently run company. Apple in the 90’s made cool products, but it was not competently run; its leadership made some really bad calls. If I had more money, I would have bought more shares.
@ ken1w, the term you are looking for is the early nineties, since we know that SJ came back to Apple in the late nineties.
No way in hell they will sell 3 million phones in one weekend..
As mentioned above 1800 AT&T stores which each got Appx 50 phones = 90,000 phones
180 Apple stores got appx 1000 phones = 180,000 phones and most Apple stores are not even sold out..
Do the math, that is about 250,000 phones, 270,000 at the VERY BEST.
Also remember, not all AT&T locations got the iPhone as they were supposed to.
Time magazine has a great review of the phone. Listen to the last paragraph or so…
“…The Palm and the Treo, et al., were merely harbingers of the era of true walk-around mobile computing that Jobs has just inaugurated. Hail to the chief.
Apple and its partners are just beginning to figure out how to develop for this thing. Look at the iPods of five years ago. That monochrome interface! That klunky moving touchwheel! They look like something a caveman whittled out of a piece of flint using another piece of flint. Now imagine something that’s going to make the iPhone look like that. You’ll have one in a few years, and it’ll be cheaper, too. If you’re not ready to think different, then think ahead.”
@gow
“1 million may be a stretch based on how many Apple could make, but certainly that number will be achieved as fast as Apple made or makes 1 million”
I’m sure I remember reading a quote from Steve that they had already manufactured3 million iPhones, that they ahd shiped 1 million to the stores and were ready to follow up very quickly.
If there are no iPhones in stores Apple or ATT it’s becuase they underestimated the local demand but I’m sure they can fill that pretty quickly.
It would be amazing if the supassed the 1 million mark before the end of the weekend. It will be a great holiday for lots of people!
MDN MW: record===> no comment needed!!!!!!!
Don’t forget the Apple Store Online has been selling these since 9pm PST.
If they manufactured 3 million iPhones, there would not be a 2-4 week wait time for orders purchased on-line.
Update:
” width=”19″ height=”19″ alt=”smile” style=”border:0;” />
My Safari problems have ceased with a reset: Hold Home+Sleep for 8 seconds. No problems since! I’m typing this in my yard & listening to ELO with no issues. Buy AAPL!
MDN is great one one of them. Already getting used to typing
Pain to switch screens to get a dang period though.
Imagine if they sold out of the three million that were manufactured & delivered! the carnage that would ensue from people bidding the price up would be too embarassing for AAPL..
It would also mean that any future deliveries would be hampered by an impossible demand, damn…I just had a thought…. That would delay the global launch of the iphone as stocks would sucked up well in advance!!!! Grrrrrrr!
Note to self….Stop that rubbish you fool, psyching yourself over nothing!
P.S. – Real buttons for play/pause and volume are alone worth the price of admission.
@ ChrissyOne….You own the bragging rights today! thank you for the informative ique photo blog!:-)
It doesn’t make any difference whether the market was closed when they started the sales. The market is not going to collapse if there are glitches. It won’t even have an affect.
The stock market is not predictable in such a simplistic way as your are thinking.
@ ken1w Stocks as in inventory! goes to show how one can read something and come up with an entirely different understanding from the authors.
Bidding the price up as in offerings already made on ebay! Just thought you could get that wrong as well!
After seeing Micosoft!s Ballmer make fun of the iphone (who will buy, the most expensive phone) I wonder if he is still laughing.
@ wayne thompson, yes he is…..through his rear oriface!!!!
ah well all good things have to come to an end sometime…..time to work!
Bye all………enjoy your new toy!:-)
It’s a success. I just hopped over to my Apple Store and it was packed. People were certainly playing with iPhones and I saw a few bought (there for less than 10 minutes).
This is the start of a long term course for Apple. In time, this amazing product is only going to become better.
The Apple stores got a lot more than a thousand phones each. More like 3K, is what I heard one Apple employee telling another last night.
I wonder how Dvorack is feeling today?
I am from outside the U.S.
Would someone might explaining the “best MDN take ever” to me?
Thanks
In his interview with the WSJ, Steve Jobs declined to say how many iPhones had been manufactured so far. If he declines to tell the WSJ, I’m guessing he hasn’t made any official statement about how many iPhones have been manufactured. Let’s not let our imaginations run wild this weekend so that anything short of an unrealistic sales figure is seen as a disaapointment. 250,000 this weekend would be great, and sounds about right to me. The Apple store in my area is sold out of the 8 gb, but still has plenty of the 4 gb.
You are also missing the point that all of the AT&T stores are taking orders and drop-shipping the phone to your house or back to the store so you can come pick it up. I ordered an 8gig, and while in the store 6 other people were placing orders while I was. They sold out of their stock yesterday, and placed over 250 orders after the stock ran out, and that was just last night. They had not figured out how many orders they had taken today so far (I was there at 2pm central time.). So if you are only basing sales this weekend on actual IN stock iPhones then yeah, might only be 250k, but if you add up all of the orders places at AT&T stores for ones to be shipped, along with what were ordered on the Apple Online store its going to be HUGE.
Magic word: Why…
Why oh why did they not release this before
” width=”19″ height=”19″ alt=”wink” style=”border:0;” />
Dvorack is feeling a bit down… who would have guessed that there were so MANY people who don’t listen to his advice..??
You morons! Apple sold one billion trillion kazillion iPhones. Apple could sell 150,000 iPhones to every man, woman, and child on planet Earth. Don’t you get! That’s why the network failed – the whole frikkin’ world was logged on iTunes simultaneously.
@MDNTake
MDN often adds some remark at the end of their report, they call it an MDN take.
MacDailyNews Take: Motorola and Verizon soon to announce the Pink SLIP?
It’s amazing how things have changed. I was pleasantly surprised when Apple sold 150K ipods in the first quarter of release. Now we’re debating whether they sold the same amount this weekend.
The AT&T received more than one delivery. The Huntsville, Alabama stores received phones Friday and Saturday.
They sold out of both orders.
The Nashville Apple receive a supply Friday, which lasted through this morning. They received another shipment today, which is to go on sell tomorrow at 9 AM.
@MDN take
In the United States a Pink Slip = To be fired or to loose one’s job.
Motorola and Verizon are watching their customers fade into the iphone haze.
No iphone for me yet, It’s only a matter of time. So long Verizon.
Can you say class action lawsuit? There are so many problems with this phone that I don’t even know where to start. One group has already threatened Apple that if they don’t replace batteries for free. I suspect that there will be tens and perhaps hundreds of lawsuits as people find out how brain dead and useless this phone really is. And wait until you find out how much Apple/ATT is going to charge you if you want to cancel service (hang on to your wallet).
Maybe this will be the ultimate undoing for Apple. After a zillion of lawsuits they will finally have to stop stealing ideas from Microsoft and give the investor money back before closing the doors in Cupertino.
Um, how long did it take Microsoft to sell that many Zunes?
LOL!

“Can you say class action lawsuit? There are so many problems with this phone that I don’t even know where to start.”
Dude, do you own one, or have you even used one in a store yet? If not then you can’t claim their are issues with them.
“One group has already threatened Apple that if they don’t replace batteries for free.”
Dumb ass concept, was an owner of a Treo 600 with no removable battery, don’t remember lawsuits because of it. Though of course I have owned a Treo 650 since they were released and have yet to remove or replace the battery, and guess what I am replacing the 650 with the iPhone, hence will never need to replace the battery…
“I suspect that there will be tens and perhaps hundreds of lawsuits as people find out how brain dead and useless this phone really is. “
Yeah, I guess I should suit Nokia, Moto, Palm and the rest of the companies I have owned cell phones from as they were a lot more useless than the iPhone ever will be.
“And wait until you find out how much Apple/ATT is going to charge you if you want to cancel service (hang on to your wallet).”
Hmm probably exactly the same amount that Verizon is charging me to cancel my service early with them, but being I am saving $30/month for unlimited data, and currently I am getting better download speeds from my new iPhone on EDGE then I am Verizon’s network on my 650 using their “high speed” network…
Go troll somewhere else, people who don’t own, have not touched or used a product, nor have any intent on using, simply have no room to talk about the failures of a product that has not failed in any way…
“And wait until you find out how much Apple/ATT is going to charge you if you want to cancel service (hang on to your wallet).”
After 30 days, $175.00 with wallet intact.
Any more brainless FUD?
About two hours ago I was talking with an att representative trying to get my iPhone activated. She kept apologizing and said over a million iPhones had been sold and that is what is causing such a delay with activations.
The Washington Square Apple store (Beaverton, Oregon) had plenty of both versions when I went in first thing this morning. (OK, ‘first thing’ meaning 10am when the mall opened!)
Activation took 2-3 minutes via iTunes, adding the data plan to our existing AT&T account with no issues.
So far so good. The cell reception seems a bit weak, but it’s too early to really tell how it performs. Certainly looks nice, and the Google Maps is very impressive, especially for instant directions and road conditions.
Has anyone else noticed that it gets a little toasty – as in warm after some use? When putting it up to your ear it’s quite warm. Anyone?
Possibly the display? Not sure.
“Has anyone else noticed that it gets a little toasty – as in warm after some use? When putting it up to your ear it’s quite warm. Anyone?”
But not any more than my Treo 700p so not too worried about it. Generally I think its the combination of the backlight, the act of holding it, and the fact that the electronics are being used so do generate some heat. Want to feel warm, recharge a Treo that was almost drained of battery power… MAN, now that is warm.
I read somewhere that Apple was launching the product with #-million phones, so I doubt if sales will be under 1-million. Trickier is to estimate the mix of the two varieties. MW:income!
3-million
I waited in line for three hours but when I finally got to the front I didn’t see Randy, Paula or Simon anywhere.
What a letdown.
“Has anyone else noticed that it gets a little toasty – as in warm after some use? When putting it up to your ear it’s quite warm. Anyone?”
You’ve been talking into your toaster again.
Turn it down to lightly brown. You’ll be fine.
SO CAN YOU CREATE RINGTONES FOR FREE OR IS IT PAID?
“DUDE to people who are being smart buying apple I bought it back at 66 in sep. SKILZ”
Mine are at 10. PWNED!
@Ringtone
” width=”19″ height=”19″ alt=”wink” style=”border:0;” />
You can create free ringtones from mp3s. The recording industry prevents creating ringtones from DRM-protected songs, such as songs bought from iTunes…(unless, of course, you convert them to mp3s first).
500,000 seems like a lot. But as many have posted their is a difference between ordered and delivered.
They can sell many more than stock on hand, it is called a back order.
And actually ow many has the Apple Online Store sold? None of us know a “girl” who said “like, umm we sold a thousand or a hundred thousand today” who works online.
I suspect AT&T will be the ones who finally lets us know how many physical units were sold when they tell Wall Street how many new accounts they received over the weekend
Enjoy
So from iTunes 7.3 you can create ringtones for the iPhone if they are not protected?
You guys are low balling the sales. I think Apple made 3.5 million of these, and will sell out of them easily by the end of the first week.
I’m hoping to replace my Treo 650 with an iPhone. I can FINALLY get the address book and calendar to sync properly then!
C1,
Which ELO album are you listening to?
Cubert,
I played with the phone today for about 10-15 minutes @ The Galleria store in Fort Lauderdale.
I immediately went with the two thumb approach and was having issues with typing. Was disappointed, but then realized that if I held my thumbs in more of a straight rather than angled manner I could avoid all the mistypes. I was ecstatic.
Having said that, when typing e-mails the predictive software really made a huge positive difference before I had figured out the whole straight vs angle deal.
Long story short, thumb typing is very much doable and the phone was just short of unbelievable. I’m hoping to get one in a few weeks as a birthday present.
The entire human poppulation is 300 million people. I highly doubt that apple is going to sell 3 million iphones in one weekend. That’s one percent of the human poppulation.
@MDNTake
The Motorola Pink RAZR
The Motorola Pink SLIP
by “human population” you must mean Americans, right? you’re starting to scare me.
I think the important number is how many people bought iPhones who did not yet own a Mac and/or iPod(emphasis on the word “yet”).
I will stick with more hardware iPhones sold this weekend than software songs sold in iTunes the first month. Anyone remember how amazing that was?
Hopefully, people will see Apple as a more long-term investment now. I am wishing for a radical new iMac before school starts. My dream is a touch screen menu option…sorry, I accidently started talking about computers. My bad.

“One group has already threatened Apple that if they don’t replace batteries for free.”
Um, did you fail English 101? That is not even a complete sentence. moron.
No heat to report. I’d like to say how delightful talking on the phone is, though. Just having it in both ears with a good mic is so nice.
I have to admit – when ELO’s ‘Telephone Line’ came on, I tried to answer it.
“The entire human poppulation is 300 million people. I highly doubt that apple is going to sell 3 million iphones in one weekend. That’s one percent of the human poppulation.”
Wow. Only off by a slight margin. As was previously pointed out, the US is just over 300 million. The world population is over 6 billion.

In the future remember this, it is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to open your mouth (or submit your post) and remove all doubt.
Consider:
In war games – real ones – not the ones on your cmputer – the ones where real bodies are counted. In Naval war games – when you want to sink an armada – you do not come barging up to the main battle group and fire away. First you fire a test salvo to see how vulnerable the enemy is. (In this case – the iPod) and once you see that vulnerabilities are exploitable to the point of conquest, you bring in the big guns – the ones that will defeat the enemy much more quickly and with a more public victory. One that can be implimented from several points of attack at the same time (including underwater).
Hence – the iPhone kicking EVERYONE a$$ who is not !
Current battle score:
Apple – 2
Rest of the technology Universe – Zip!

Here, let me fix that for you….
Current battle score:
Apple – on top
Rest of the technology Universe – Bent over…
Current battle score:
Rest of the technology universe: Bent over, grabbing their ankles, singing R.E.M.’s “It’s the end of the world as we know it”.
Apple: Saddled up behind rest of the technology universe with a big bucket of Crisco.
@ Crabapple
> the term you are looking for is the early nineties, since we know that SJ came back to Apple in the late nineties.
No I think I meant the entire 90’s. The “leadership” of a company is not one person, even for Apple. After the return of Steve Jobs, it took a few years before Apple became a well-run company.
I hope MS is watching (I’m sure they are). Ballmer is probably freaking out by now because he’s realizing that by this time next week there will be more iPhones in use by than Zunes in existance…….let alone Zunex in use.
Of course when asked about the iPhone introduction next week, Ballmer and Gates too will probably say something like “Oh, did that phone get released last week? I didn’t know.” Yeah right……..
Time to start throwing some chairs baby….time to start throwing some chairs. Hehehehehehehehehehehehehe
Two points: First, the phone is freaking fantastic. Is it me, or does it seem much smaller than expected? I thought it would be much larger in my hand. (MW: come)
Second, I was cursing the damn iBrick until noon Sunday when I finally got through to the right person at ATT. Nothing more frustrating than waiting in line for 5 hours, getting home, and then starting at a blank screen for 36 hours. And ATT customer service was abysmal until I called the 3701 number. She was awesome. The activation issues are NOT FUD.
My browser is set for the bbc, and readers will be glad to know they think the iPhone hasn’t got a keyboard. No explanation, that implies it’s dysfunctional. What this is is disinformation, and it is shocking, but coming from the BBC, a Windows friendly place indeed, it’s not surprising.
For a good laugh, go to:

On this note, how many service providers (IE: AT&T) could add a half million accounts in one week and NOT have a few problems. Selling the phones is easy whereas switching from other providers, who typically don’t like letting customers leave, is bound to cause some problems. It seems AT&T is handling it very well, all things considered, and is addressing coverage/bandwidth speed complaints at the same time.

I think 250,000 more likely…1800 AT&T stores x 60 = 108,000 + 170 Apple stores x 1000 = 170,000. Plus they didn’t sell out.
