3 Million iPhones on June 29th?
Businessweek discusses the hype surrounding the iPhone and asks "How Big Will the iPhone Be?"

According to two Businessweek sources, Apple plans to have 3 million iPhones ready for sale on launch day. Apple revealed through television ads earlier this week that the iPhone was coming on June 29th. Meanwhile, AT&T apparently anticpates large crowds and has reportedly hired crowd control personal at the AT&T stores in anticipation of the launch.
Finally, a few first hand reports (one, two) on the iPhone have been circulating, though the validity of the accounts is difficult to verify.
