iPhone 4 Owner? Apple Will Give You A Free Bumper

 

Apple and Steve Jobs today announced that they will give out a Bumper case to any iPhone 4 owner. If you purchased a bumper case you will get your money back and of course you will get to keep your Bumper case. Apple is doing this in order to keep their customers happy while they experience signal issue due to the iPhone 4's antenna.  Currently you cannot purchase the Bumper cases on Apple's online store, instead you will see a note saying "Apple will offer a free iPhone 4 Bumper or other select cases to iPhone 4 customers." More details on how to order you free Bumper case will be up on Apple.com next week. You can already try getting your money back right now if you have purchased a Bumper case. It's safe to say that there have been reports of iPhone 4 users who have never had any signal issues. Apple said that they cannot guaranty that everyone will be able to get a free Bumper but instead they will offer other select cases.

Apple Sold 1.5 Million iPhones on Launch Date

As you could probably know, Apple sold a ton of iPhone 4's yesterday. People were queueing around the block for the chance to get one but just how many did they sell? Of course, nobody knows the exact number but Oppenheimer’s Yair Reiner has tried to guess and come up with 1.5 million!

So we know that in the US there were 600,000 iPhone pre-orders. A big number of course. And that is just without walk-ins and the ones sold at places like Best Buy and Walmart. So Reiner reckons that there were 100,000 non-resevered iPhone 4's bought in Apple stores and around 50,000 in other retailers. So that comes to 750,000 iPhones in the US alone! But if you add the international orders in as well (which is probably the same as just the US purchases) you get around 1.5 million. 

Now if you remember back to the iPad launch, it sold 1 million units in less than a month. And you thought that was a huge success. So just think of the impact of the iPhone in just one day!

However, you should take this with a grain of salt as apple product launches are often over exaggerated and you should wait until Apple posts the official numbers.
