iPhone 3G was normally sold only the first two weeks of October.
If you believe the resource "Technic. Ru", the iPhone 3G is now almost not for sale. Quote:
“We took the data of one of the content providers as a starting point. The number of requests coming from a certain brand of phones correlates well with the number of phones of this brand in the hands of users ...
... in the first two weeks of October, the number of "iPhones" in the hands of the Russians doubled. However, in the past two weeks, sales have actually risen, and the share of Apple has even decreased slightly. Further analysis showed that until October, Russians had about 100,000 devices in their hands, that is, another 100,000 were sold in October (including “gray” copies!). Not a bad indicator, if not for the rapid market saturation. In order for operators to sell 3.5 million units in two years, only they need to sell 146 thousand handsets per month. It is already clear that the number is unattainable. And at the end of October, sales rose altogether. "

In addition, the guys ran through the shops and interviewed sales assistants. In general, who cares, the original article here: tehnichno.ru/lenta/529/0
It seems to me to be true. I myself wanted to buy 3G, but then I felt sorry for the money, and then there was a crisis ... But since then I have been paying attention to iPhones' users - on the street, in the subway. So: for a whole month I saw an iPhone with a black lid in the hands of a person only once! While the iPhones of the previous generation I see dozens. What do you think?
