Will Apple Be Able To Meet iPhone Demand?
May 5th, 2007 | By James Lewin | Category: iPods & Portable Media Players Interest in Apple’s upcoming iPhone appears to be growing.
According to ChangeWave analyst Paul Carton, their research reveals “exceptionally high levels of excitement surround the iPhone‚Äôs upcoming release. Nearly one-in-10 respondents (9%) say they are likely to buy the new iPhone once it becomes available in June.”
“Another 7% say they are likely to buy the iPhone as a gift for someone else,” adds Carton. According to the ChangeWave analysis, the survey provides strong evidence that Apple should be able to exceed their iPhone sales goals.
Of those that are not currently interested in purchasing an iPhone, 53% would be interested if Apple could offer the phone for $199 or less.
“The real issue for Apple isn‚Äôt meeting its first year iPhone sales goals. The survey shows that‚Äôs very doable,” said Carton. “The real issue is whether they can keep up with consumer demand ‚Äì including having enough parts to fulfill orders ‚Äì while maintaining product integrity.”

I wanted to ask if I could nominate you for “best podcasting blog” over at the Blogger’s Choice Awards I think with your readership and a little self promotion (they have a “vote for me” badge you can put up with a little copying and pasting of some embed code) you would have a good shot at winning. Anyway, maybe I am biased as I love this site, but I’d love to see you at the top of the list. Thanks for the great blog and keep it coming!
