For context, the 2008 iPhone sales (whole year, not a quarter) were $1.84B. And now it's $7.4B in one quarter. Is that even possible? http://blogs.eweek.com/ap

That's 7.4 million sold, not $7.4 billion in sales.

  Ah, thanks. Checking the links I posted: iPhone sales go from $1.84B per year to $2.3B per quarter. Still pretty good. (EDIT: rather bizarrely, that's precisely a five-fold increase.)
