  Hmmm -
  
  Is that TOTAL sales or IN-STORE sales? It is difficult to judge from the context.
  
  If it means in-store sales, this would be expected given that iPhones can no longer e purchased online.
  
  In the end, the no on-line sales is going to be a big win for Apple. It will drive an awful lot of new customers into their stores who might not have gone otherwise. There they will see the other products and be able to question the sales folks. You can't help but be curious about the iMac the first time you see one.

  jmmx, this article is clearly about iPhone sales through AT&T stores, not Apple stores

  What does this sentence say? "Offsetting these positive factors in the second quarter were strong growth add flow share and the fact that more of our subscribers are opting for advanced, higher cost devices."
  
  Overall it sounds like a positive statement, so how can strong growth offset a positive? I have no idea what "strong growth add flow share is. Should "add" have been "ad?"

  They didn't have enough inventory to meet demand when the original iPhone launched. It's not surprising that they doubled the volume in the first 12 days this year. They probably would've have sold double what they did last year if the supply had existed.
  
  My only point is that you should not take the comments at face value.

  the apps store is amazing. as long as the lines were for people waiting to buy the iphone on the first day, that's the line for apps developers. gone are the days when no one wanted to develop for apple.
  to the guy who's car was towed...um, i don't actually know a nice phone company...they aren't exactly known for heart. Apple, on the other hand, treats it's customers very well. and their 'exclusive' with AT & T isn't forever.

  What no Neoreader? Why doesn't AT&T and Apple offer consumers and web users the ability to get information from products or objects in one click?

  I think it is a travesty that Apple will not provide "quality" insurance on the IPhone while blocking a quality company like "Safeware" from providing quality "full coverage" insurance for IPhone users.What that tells me is you want me to drop my phone,or my phone get stolen so I will have to pay $600.00 instead of the $299.00 I just paid...if I want a replacement.If I had known that apple was not going to provide or allow anyone else the ability to providing "quality full coverage" insurance at a reasonably price with an reasonable deductible I would have gone to Sprint and bought the "Instinct" which has coverage.Apple,you should be ashamed of yourselves !!!! I know....it's all about your profits...right???????...
