iPhone 3G Sells One Million Units

Filed under: Cellphones

Apple has announced that it has sold one million iPhone 3Gs since it launched last Friday. Says CEO Steve Jobs:

“iPhone 3G had a stunning opening weekend,” said Steve Jobs, Apple’s CEO.

“It took 74 days to sell the first one million original iPhones, so the new iPhone 3G is clearly off to a great start around the world

At this rate, the iPhone 3G is easily on its way to surpass the original iPhone in sales. The fact that the 3G was launched in 22 counties probably helped too. Thought the one million units was impressive? Over 10 million applications have been downloaded from the App Store already, which is absurd. Apple really has locked itself into the mobile phone market as a top competitor this time around.

The Six Million Dollar Dog

Hope is a dog born without front legs. A dog barely mobile. Gentlemen, we can rebuild her. We have the technology. We have the capability to build the world’s first bionic puppy. Hope will be that puppy. Better than she was before. Better, stronger, faster.

This two-legged Maltese puppy gets around by using a specially-designed device using wheels from a model airplane. From birth, she was able to get around hardwood floors with ease by pushing off her back legs. However, doctors said that her natural mode of moving eventually would damage her bones and spine. This led them to creating The Six Million Dollar Dog.
