New Shipping Terminology Points to 3G iPhone
Another little tidbit regarding the (hopefully) imminent release of a 3G iPhone has recently popped up on the interwebs. In recent shipping manifests for Apple product shipments, a new term has popped up. Apple apparently is using “Electric Computers” as a disguised product name. Most people wouldn’t think twice about this, as Apple is pretty much all “Electric Computers”. The only interesting part about the name “Electric Computers” is that it has never been used as a disguised name before. Most other Apple computer products are referred to as “Desktop Computers”.
188 shipping containers full of Electric Computers have made it to the North America, 121 of them making it stateside. Import Genius reports that these containers could contain up to 40,000 units of the new iPhone. The only thing that could point away from 3G iPhones is the lack of amount. 40,000 would be an apettizer in the meal that will be the 3G iPhone, and Apple hopes to have sales figures in the tens of millions by year’s end.
With all things pointing towards 3G (No vacations for AT&T employees, screenshots, and now shipping manifests), I think that this product, no matter how rumored, is getting the most hype in the history of Apple products. A lack of 3G iPhones at the end of WWDC ‘08 would be the unfulfilled expectation of the century.
