19 million want iPhone

Posted by Aaron Freedman | Monday, June 18, 2007 2:53 PM PT

Apparently, Wall Street isn’t the only one excited about the iPhone (Apple stock rose 3.8% today due to updated specs on the iPhone’s battery life, erasing all losses during WWDC). According to market research firm M:Metrics, 19 million Americans have interest in purchasing Apple’s three-in-one device.

Wow, 19 million. That’s a lot of people, almost doubling Apple’s expectations of 10 million. Of course, the question is how many of these people will actually buy the iPhone when it comes out, especially considering that 67% of those are on other wireless carriers. But hey, most of this is pure speculation. Th real judgement of the iPhone as a huge success or miserable failure will be coming June 29th, at 6 PM EST.
