A Million “Illegal” iPhones in China

Although it has not yet formally entered China, the number of iPhones entering the Chinese market through various channels has reached over one million, according to ChinaStakes.

At the end of 2007, consulting firm In-stat pointed out that the unlocked number of iPhones in the Chinese market reached 400,000, which means that within just more than a year, iPhone sales in China had increased by 2.5 times. Ovum estimates that if China Unicom introduces iPhone officially, sales in China will rise in a straight line.
