iPhone 3G sales hit one million mark

A total of one million 3G iPhones have been sold around the world since the handset's much-anticipated launch last week, according to Apple.
And despite the outages, shortages, and related hand-wringing associated with last Friday's iPhone 3G launch and Thursday's release of the iPhone 2.0 firmware, Apple says there were nevertheless 10 million downloads from its new App Store in its first weekend of existence.
"It took 74 days to sell the first one million original iPhones, so the new iPhone 3G is clearly off to a great start around the world," said Apple chief executive Steve Jobs in a statement.
"The App Store is a grand slam," he added, "with a staggering 10 million applications downloaded in just three days. Developers have created some extraordinary applications."
