Orange sell over 30,000 iPhones on day one
Share
It may be a year old, but the iPhone is still breaking records. Orange recorded over 30,000 iPhone 3GS units sold yesterday, their first day selling the handset, breaking the record for single day sales for a mobile phone.
It’s a massive figure. But with so few differences between the services offered by Orange and O2 it is a little hard to explain. A loyal customer base perhaps, or the multi-million “You’re Covered” ad campaign boasting Orange’s strong coverage might have helped the surge in interest. Little perks like Orange Wednesdays too swing support in Orange’s favour.
It will be interesting to see whether or not Vodafone can match or beat these big numbers when they start selling the iPhone in early 2010.

Once you’ve purchased your iPhone and played around with it for a while, you’ll notice that actually there isn’t an app for everything.
That’s where MEDL Mobile comes in … if you have an original idea for an iPhone app and it’s good enough, they’ll develop it for you, publish it to the app store AND give you 25% of the profits.
This is what Rob Shoesmith did (a binman from Coventry, UK) who came up with the idea of “Problem Halved” … a cool utility for helping people with their problems.
