[COLGeek]

116 in Japan. 250 in the UK.

...and then again can you steal something worthless?

142 @ $700 EACH. Still a lot of phones and a lot of waste if they are never sold or made use of.

[citation][nom]otacon72[/nom]Hate to burst your bubble but ..It is not much of a shock to learn the majority of Apple buyers are working-class users earning upwards of $75,000 a year. For example, only 28 percent of people who make $30,000 yearly own an Apple product, in comparison to the roughly 77 percent making $70,000 who own an average of three. I think you have to be pretty intelligent to earn upwards of $75K a year.[/citation]


Hate to burst YOUR bubble, but every CEO that I've ever met could barely figure out how to open an attachment in an email.

Intelligent, yes, but not with technology. Hence, Apple.
