Analyst rates iPhone sales up whopping 350%

While we all love a gadget – sales of Apples must have iPhone look to continue to soar says the NY Post. Seems that analyst Piper Jaffray is estimating that upto 45 million iPhones will be sold in 2009.

Apple have expanded its international offering of the iPhone considerably in recent months and this goes someway to contributing towards the growth. Whilst a broader product range will also help.

It certainly seems that there’s no stopping iPhones march in terms of market share but it will be interesting to see whats around the corner for the device as the rest of the market catches up – to be sure consumers will be after more business integration with email – and higher specs (improved camera, access speed, storage space) next time around with iPhone 2.0 – and it will be interesting to see how apple develops its device.

In the meantime the iPhone continues to sell in truckloads clearly outstripping sales growth of its iPod predecessor.
