Verizon activated 2 million iPhone 4 handsets last quarter

Verizon has announced their Q3 2011 results and in the accompanying conference call revealed that they sold 2 million iPhone 4 handsets last quarter. As to iPhone 4S, unlike AT&T, who've already boasted about a million activations, Verizon offered only:

On Oct. 14, the Apple iPhone 4S became available on the Verizon Wireless 3G network.

The current quarter should be interesting.

  1. That's 2M unhappy customers. :-) Well, maybe not all of them crave the latest/greatest but I'd be hot if I just bought one and another one came out shortly thereafter.

      Actually I bought my Verizon iPhone in feb, I sold it on Craigslist for 400 and bought the 4s on Craigslist for 460 . I'm not mad !

      I don't think they can be unhappy, especially since Apple traditionally updates in the June/July time frame, but it was published industry-wide that they were pushing this back until fall. If the 2 million couldn't wait until Fall, that was there choice.

      When my niece bought the iPhone 4 last quarter she specifically asked about the next phone to be release. Mainly because I told her buying the iPhone 4 was dumb considering the iPhone 4S (didn't know the name then) would be released so soon. The sales rep told her that the next iPhone would not be released at least until next summer. She doesn't care but I would definitely be heated. Either there was an uninformed salesperson or more likely someone wanted some commission.

    Why would they be unhappy? And why would a sales rep say anything about an up coming device? That doesn't make sense. A sales rep doesn't have te obligation to tell you anything at all. If your niece couldn't wait or any of the 2 million other iPhone 4 users it's there own damn fault. A rep or anyone can't tell you the exact date of a device cause they don't know and they can't speculate cause that's called "violation of code of conduct" and that my friend will give you a one way ticket to unemployment. And trust me the rep was gaining anything on upgrading your dumb niece that just wanted the iPhone cause all of her friends have one. Take a number and move to the back of the line cause no one gives a shit.
