The title is misleading.
To clarify,
> only 5 iPhones sold in Chinese online store
Which really means, The official ChinaUniCom store on Taobao.com has just sold 5 iPhones in 2 weeks.
ChinaUniCom is the only and run-by-government carrier of iPhones in China, all official iPhones has no WIFI chipset(Marvell 88W8686 Wi-Fi). And Taobao.com is the biggest & most popular B2C & C2C online store in China, something like a combination of craigslist+eBay+Amazon.
But, the statistics does NOT include ChinaUniCom's own website that offers iPhone sales online: http://shop.10010.com/iphonesale/getAllIphone.action http://shop.10010.com/iphonesale/getAllIphone.action
But this does not change the fact the ChinaUniCom version iPhone sucks hell. It's expensive and lacks function. Reports say that 80% buyers dropped the official ChinaUniCom iPhone OS for modded ones.
