French buy 70,000 iPhones in first month

Filed under: ,

After selling 30,000 iPhones in the first five days, Orange reports that week that 70,000 iPhones were purchased in the first month. Nearly half (48%) went to new Orange customers, and 3,500 were sold unlocked.

I’m a bit surprised that the number of unlocked phones sold isn’t higher. Plus, whether Orange sold

30,000 in the first five days and

an additional 40,000 by the following three weeks, than that’s a significant drop in sales. Having gone on sale just before the holidays (November 29th), I thought sales would have been more consistent.

It will be interesting to take in what numbers Steve shares at Macworld.
