Don’t worry – Apple hasn’t missed the iPhone sales boat E-mail

Apple hasn’t missed the sales boat at all. In fact, a whole stack of sales boats are waiting to line up to deliver 3G iPhones around the world into the hands of millions of new customers.

Sales boats with no iPhones on board are the ones who will be missing out, and their captains will be kicking themselves they didn’t fight harder for an iPhone shipment.

There’s clearly no doubt Apple will hit 10 million iPhones this year, and will likely sell plenty more besides.

Samsung, Nokia, LG and others are all releasing iPhone clones of sorts, but it’s the interface that matters most.

Clone and copy that, and you can really start challenging Apple for the hearts, minds and wallets of consumers.

Until then, Apple’s 3G iPhone will stun the world – and mobile phone manufacturing competitors - even more than version 1.0 did.

It just now needs to be released with no bad surprises.

Steve Jobs, if you thought the pressure was high for an amazing performance before Macworld 2007 when you announced the iPhone to begin with, then you’re surely aware that your true follow up performance – on June 9 – is your real test.

Somehow I think you’ll pass it with flying colours. The world will be watching, and waiting on June 9 (and June 10 in different time zones, like Australia) to see if you do!
