Verizon Activated 3.1 Million iPhones In Q3 2012, But Only 651K Were iPhone 5s
MG Siegler, commenting on the TechCrunch post by Chris Velazco, linked above:
In other words, the iPhone 5 was on sale for just nine days before the quarter ended. And it was supply-constrained the whole time.
Mr. Siegler and Mr. Velazco pointed out the nine-day sales window the iPhone 5 had before these quarterly numbers were announced, but neither came right out and said what I find to be the most impressive expression of it:
Verizon activated over 72,000 iPhone 5s per day during the nine days ending the quarter.
