iPhone sales figures

Apple CEO Steve Jobs has been talking about the Apple iPhone at the Macworld conference in San Francisco. This year - unlike last year's launch announcment - was pretty low-key, with a revelation that Apple sells an average of 20,000 iPhones per day on average and has just exceeded 4 million worldwide sales. News from the UK isn't so good, with rumours that O2 missed its target of 200,000 within the first two months. [Sources: Telecoms.com; FT.com]
