Is iphone losing its market?

Apple last week announced that it has sold 3.7 millions iphones till now, whereas AT&T figures show its little under 2 million iphones. 1.7 million is a whopping number to miss, its either that the people who bought never activated through AT&T or unlocked it or is it lying in stores?.

Though the fact many phones were unlocked, still 1.7 millions cant accounted for unlocking.Many analysts predict that there is a huge buildup of iphones in stores.With Apple not making any announcement about new iphone versions, many Apple fans were also disappointed.

After the initial buzz many mobile enthusiasts might lose interest in iphone, afterall mobile market is very fast and versions are released every 3 months are so.
