So, no mention of the iPhone in the first five paragraphs. That certainly
speakes to its contribution to the quarter.

do the math scott. 270,000 times $200 profit per unit, $54,000,000 out
of $818,000,000 and so while not "tiny", it's only 15% of Apple's Q3
profits.
The big gains with the Mac was the biggest news, then continued strong
iPod sales (even though they haven't been updated in about a year

"CUPERTINO, California..."
That's Paragaph 1
"Apple shipped 1,764,000 Macintosh® computers, representing..."
That's Paragraph 2
"We¹re thrilled to report the highest June quarter revenue and profit
in
Apple¹s history, along with the highest quarterly Mac sales ever,²
said
Steve Jobs, Apple¹s CEO. ³iPhone is off to a great start..."
Paragaph 3, third line: "iPhone is off to a great start..."
An honest mistake, right?
FYI, Paragraph 4 says that they expect to increase their gross revenue
by $300M for next quarter. YMMV to what degree that speakes to
contributions of what.

To be fair, the iPhone was available for only two out of the quarter's 91
days. If it had been the quarter's biggest news they'd have had a crappy
quarter!

and to be perfectly clear. it was really only 1.5 days.
they didn't start selling them until 6pm on Friday June 29th.
then all day saturday.
-
then a new quarter began.
(so technically... 6pm-12am the first night and 9 to 9 (roughly) on
saturday. so 18 hours of sales. (except the 1 nyc 24hr store) (not sure
about ATT hours) but no Apple Online iphone orders were activated during
that time since they didn't start arriving until later that first week.
so 18 hours to sell 270,000 units is way off the charts for any
electronic device. ranks up there even with iPods during christmas.
----
but to be fair, apple did screw up by releasing it 2 days before a full
quarter ended. if they would have waited just one week, they would have
hit the 3-4 million number for the 4th quarter and we wouldn't have seen
the 8 point drop from the erroneous ATT info, then a 12 point jump after
afters today.

You aren't real smart, are you? And you obviously didn't read the
financial report, either. If you're trying to look stupid, success has
been acheived.

"The iPhone went on sale in the United States on June 29, but its impact on
Apple's results was limited because it was available only in the last two
days of the quarter and sales will be booked as subscription revenue over
two years."
The figures that I saw were in the order of $14 per phone booked for the
second quarter, not $200.

Huh?
It's in the third paragraph, the very first place the CEO is quoted.
The first paragraph is for the meat of the release, anyway -- can't put
it there.
The second gives changes in the major lines, and yes, Macs and iPods
are most important.
How could anyone expect iPhone to be mentioned above the two most
critical lines of the company? Especially when it was sold for such a
short time! It's only the part many people were interested to read;
it's not the most important data they had to share.

but not for sales. and many of the news outlets picked it up as "slow
sales". when it was really "slow activation" because ATT couldn't handle
that much demand.
the funny news item from this morning, was a channel i was watching said:
microsoft iphone off to a slow start ///// then some commercials, then
they went back and said apple's iphone may not be as popular as first
thought, then they quoted the erroneous ATT "activation" numbers, but
implied they were "sales" numbers, so i had a laugh over that one!
that's why i always use facts, it's easier that way.

but you are confused. you are talking about the "subscription" kickback
to apple from ATT for each iphone contract. ZERO of those funds were in
the 3rd quarter numbers. (listen to the conference call)
the $200 is the PROFIT of each iphone, which certainly does appear on
the 3rd quarter numbers.
you were trying to talk about something else, cnn didn't word it
correctly so that's why you got confused.

Yeah...
Because it was expected to do so much for a quarter where it had been on
sale for a grand total of 1.25 days out of 91.25...

Both ATT and Apple said that only a small
percentage of people were affected by activation
issues.
