200,000 iPhones activated in China. Ramping slowly to ensure customer experience.

Cook: Noise about App Store frustration may be higher than reality (orly?)

iPhone 3GS features accelerated corporate adoption (hardware encryption?)
Adding carriers in existing countries earned incremental growth.
Quattro Wireless was acquired to provide developers, especially those who develop free apps, a seamless way to earn money.

Impressive!

Love my Imac, Base Station Extreme, and iTouch.
Just wish I liked the iPhone.

Yeah pretty impressive. But that's what happens when you let multiple carriers
carry your product. Hopefully it will happen here in the U.S. Enough with the AT&T
exclusitivity already.
