Apple announced that it had sold over five million of its new iPhone 5. Coincidence? Five millions of iPhone 5?
iPhone 5 First Weekend Sales Top Five Million
CUPERTINO, California—September 24, 2012—Apple® today announced it has sold over five million of its new iPhone® 5, just three days after its launch on September 21, and more than 100 million iOS devices have been updated with iOS 6, the world’s most advanced mobile operating system. iPhone 5 is available in the US, Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore and the UK, and will be available in 22 more countries on September 28 and more than 100 countries by the end of the year. Demand for iPhone 5 exceeded the initial supply and while the majority of pre-orders have been shipped to customers, many are scheduled to be shipped in October.
That means five million units of iPhone 5 in customers’ hands. Apple sold each and every unit in its inventory and yet to fulfill millions of other orders.
As usual, Apple disappoints the analysts and pundits once again since it failed to sell 50 millions of its iPhone 5 in one weekend.

Analysts and pundits are making things up and they get paid for it.
