Apple Sells 1 Million iPhones
Apple announced that it has sold its 1-millionth iPhone. The company had predicted it would sell 1 million handsets by the end of the third quarter, and with weeks to spare, Apple says it has met its goal.
The company has said it hopes to sell 10 million iPhones by the end of 2008.
Meanwhile, according to a report in BusinessWeek, Apple may be looking to bid at the FCC’s upcoming 700 MHz spectrum auction. Rumors mostly have been circulating about Google’s possible entrance into the wireless market via the spectrum auction, but BusinessWeek says that two sources are claiming that CEO Steve Jobs has studied the possibility of bidding in the auction.
The report continues to say that at least one source told the magazine that Apple was thinking that the hassles of running a national network would not outweigh the profits to be gained from no longer having to partner with network operators. The magazine’s other source seemed to think that Apple was still in favor of the benefits of dropping carrier partners.

Microsoft in competition with iphone
Microsoft said that it was “not unreasonable” to speculate that the company could introduce a smartphone based on its Zune digital music player, in direct competition with Apple’s iPhone.
Since Microsoft first announced its Zune digital music player, the idea of a converged Zune/smartphone product has been the topic of speculation. Initially the company responded that a Zune phone was definitely in the works, but then earlier this year CEO Steve Ballmer said that a Zune phone was not on the company’s planning table, but that it could add more music and gaming functions to its Windows Mobile platform.
Currently Microsoft’s mobile phone focus has been primarily on providing its platform, Window’s Mobile, to handset manufacturers, but the company said that, going forward, integrating device and software production might make sense.
