While all other companies have thrown sales goals out the window and are focussing solely on survival, Apple announced they have made their goal of selling 10 million iPhones in 2008. The goal was first announced at MacWorld in January of 2007.

Apple was pretty much on track to make their goal at the beginning of 2008 but with the release of the 3G iPhone, sales were somewhat accelerated. Over 6 million 3G iPhones alone have been sold which more than reached their goal when accounting for all previous sales. Apple made their goal with 2 1/2 months to spare…. proving that if you create a cool enough product people find the money.
