Does The Announcement That T-mobile Had Sold 1.5 Million Phones In G1 Pre-orders Was Too Good To Be True? This Was Thought Information Week, Which Is Go Ask The Guys At The Origin Of This Astronomical Number: A Mathematician Of The Motley Fool. It Appears That The Multiplication Of Electronic Buns May Have Been A Bit Hasty, And The Real Figure Is Probably Closer To 200,000 To 300,000 Copies. Important, But Not Insane.

I Contacted Anders Bylund, The Author Of The Article Original Motley Fool Has Been Taken In Hundreds Of Articles. I Was Curious How He Obtained The Figures And He Explained His Reasoning.

The Fact Remains That The G1 A Competitor Seems Quite Credible In The Market For Smartphones.
