iPhone 3GS sells 1 million in first weekend

Apple announced today that the iPhone 3GS sold 1 million units in its opening weekend, matching last year's record sales for the iPhone 3G and easily besting the original iPhone's premiere of 270,000 units sold. No word yet on how many were new purchases, and how many were conversions from existing iPhone owners.

I have been enjoying my new iPhone 3GS over the weekend, and am very impressed with the speed, camera - both still and video, and the fact that it fits all of my iPhone 3G accessories. It will be interesting to see how long sales stay at this brisk pace, and how the price drop on the iPhone 3G to $99 has affected overall iPhone market-share.
