CUPERTINO, Calif., Nov. 8 (UPI) -- Brisk sales of Apple's iPhone have catapulted it to the No. 2 position in so-called smart phone sales, jumping ahead of the Blackberry, industry analysts say.
With huge initial sales of the iPhone 3G, which came out in July, and its expansion into more countries outside the United States, Apple shipped 6.9 million iPhones in the third quarter, surpassing Blackberry's 6.1 million in sales, Information Week reported Saturday.
