In today’s iPhone 4 press discussion out in Cupertino, Apple has suggested which they’ve pushed 3 million phones so distant given launch a little underneath the month ago. For a record, that’s about twice a number Apple sold in a initial weekend — 1.7 million — so a gait has clearly slowed down the bit, yet which would crop up to be due almost to one side to supply constraints.

As for how many of those sole phones are staying out in a margin, Jobs has revealed return rates, too: 1.7 percent, which works out to about 51,000 phones, compared to 6 percent for a 3GS. Seems like most of these returners would’ve been improved off eBaying for a profit, eh?
