“Pegatron Technology has landed orders for 15 million units of the iPhone 4S from Apple with shipments reaching 2-2.5 million units in the fourth quarter of 2011, the Chinese-language Commercial Times has cited sources as saying,” Steve Shen reports for DigiTimes.

MacDailyNews Take:
[Thanks to MacDailyNews Reader “Since84” for the heads up.]
Took me a minute to figure out the Peg Bundy / Megatron mash up. I originally read the headline to say “Pentagon” and thought Apple had made a big sale to the government.
Once the spoiled brats got over their childish notions that the iPhone 4s is not a great update and more Wow! than bow-wow the sales took off. And regular consumers who have a life saw it for what it was – pretty bitchin’. Siri – amazing!
Voice is huge…
Done right and integrated into all functions of the phone – the Apple way – Siri was the right thing at the right time. Best of all – its just gonna get better from here.
