Analysts Disappointed with Early iPhone Activation Numbers from AT&T, Blame Global Warming
AT&T doused analyst’s wild expectations yesterday by announcing that on the weekend of launch, AT&T saw just 146,000 iPhone activations, well short of expectations. That’s activation, not actual sales. Analysts had projected that during the same period more than 500,000 iPhones had sold through. Needless to say these two numbers don’t jive, leading many firms like Piper Jafrey to question how successful iPhone sales really are.
I had the same reaction when taking my dog to go potty this morning. After feeding him an entire bag of Puppy Chow, I expected far more substantial return. Instead the results were weak and disappointing. As a result, I am placing both my dog and iPhone on eBay.
