Piper Jaffray's Gene Munster believes that the current 300% uptick in iPhone sales since the recent $200 price drop is "not sustainable." Today, on NPR, however, I heard Steve Jobs claim that they'd sell 10 million of these bad-boys this year. Yowzah! Makes me wonder if Apple has more tricks up their sleeve for this holiday season or if business is just going to be flat out insane?
To date, iPhone has sold 1 million units in 2.5 months. To put that in perspective though, it took them 2 years to sell 1 million iPods.

Quoted: An analysis from teardown firm Portelligent estimates that the new smartphone costs Apple a mere $220 to make.

Quoted: Apple’s stock will benefit this year from new iPods, Intel-based Macs and the possibility of an Apple-branded cell phone, investment firm Piper Jaffray told clients this week. “We would be buyers of AAPL on the recent pullback given we believe iPod demand will accelerate in mid-CY06, based on upcoming positive seasonality and new form factor iPod’s,” Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster wrote in a research note sent to iLounge. “Additionally, we believe Apple will benefit from the new Intel-based Mac’s, along with what we estimate to be a 75% chance of a iPhone in the next 12 months.”
