iPhone 3G for the Second Time !

The second Generation iPhone, incidentally named - iPhone 3G ( for 3rd Generation services) sold over million phones in three days. wow, that was something.
Now for the Second wave - Singtel will launch the iPhone3G on 9th Aug in Singapore and Airtel confirmed that at the "stroke of midnight on 21st Aug" Airtel would be launching the same in India. Now that means a staggered approach - now very similar to the worldwide launch that they had on 11th July that chocked the apple servers globally.

Another intestering note on the same - where did the million iPhones go ?
From Dev's post - 600,000 in the United States. followed by 70,000 in Japan. Now, Japan is a country where people are used to having phones that are far more advanced than the iPhone, they use their phones on a regular basis to watch live TV, pay for various shopping bills and the likes - and there was much apprehension on how the iPhone would be selling into a market like that?

PS: Did you notice that the largest market bought 8 times more phones than the second largerst - that is over a 100,000 more than all the other countries put together!

PSS : The Second wave is on 22nd August GLOBALLY. Correcting my previous statement, this would mean another clog at Apple Servers, unless they have geared up themselves since July 13th !
