iPhone 4s Pre-orders create new record
October 10th, 2011 - 7:14 pm ICT by Aishwarya BhattNew York, Oct 10 (THAINDIAN NEWS) Without doubt, Apple will always look at the days of Steve Jobs as a remarkable moment in the history of the company regardless of what happens to the company in the future. Just hours before Jobs died, Apple launched the iPhone 4s phone and gave the date for preorders to begin.
The response of the public has been phenomenal with presale orders venturing into unfamiliar territories. Several wireless mobile companies in the United States and around the world started receiving pre-orders for the product on Friday. The orders were accepted online and on the phone.
AT&T, one of the service providers, announced after 12 hours when the presale orders were announced that they have received 200,000 preorders. The carrier announced emphatically that iPhone 4s is ”the most successful iPhone launch we’ve ever had.”
Almost all the major carriers in the United States have reported similar response from the public.
Apple will undoubtedly be comfortable with the response of the public because what happens at the post-Jobs era will be critical to the future of the company. The company estimates that in the first quarter of the year, they will be able to sell at least 25 million iPhone 4s devices.
The funeral for Jobs was held on Friday.
