Behold! I AM the Head Dork!
Apple Inc’s iPhone outsold all smartphones in the United States in July, its first full month on sale, accounting for 1.8 percent of all U.S. mobile handset sales, said research group iSuppli.
ISuppli reiterated its forecast that Apple would sell 4.5 million iPhones this year, rising to more than 30 million in 2011.
The two models of the iPhone on the market sold more than Research in Motion’s Blackberry series, the entire Palm portfolio and any individual smartphone model from Motorola, Nokia or Samsung.
“While iSuppli has not collected historical information on this topic, it’s likely that the speed of the iPhone’s rise to competitive dominance in its segment is unprecedented in the history of the mobile-handset market,” iSuppli said.
I haven’t any particular interest in SmartPhones. But, in that portion of my business career that was dedicated to marketing and sales, I remember what it was like to have the hot product. Which is what the iPhone certainly is – in its segment – right now.
…back to the library for you…
Oh so we are back to petty , quippy and plagerized comments.
How about this one, my analysis of the new iPod line…
At the low end we have the iPod Home Basic edition. Then the iPod Home Premium. Followed by the iPod Business edition. Finished off with the iPod Ultimate.
So really the problem with the iPod line is that there are to manu skus and consumers will be overwhelmed by all those skus and won’t be able to make up their mind and end up not buying one at all.

That has to easily be one of the stupidest things I have ever read.
