Piper Jaffray specialist Gene Munster---among the greatest The apple company bulls on Wall Street---said in a research note:
We believe that the revealed 2 thousand iPhone 5 pre-order device number indicates that The apple company could offer 6-10 thousand mobile phones in the discharge few days. We believe The apple company will issue an argument on Thursday Sept Twenty fourth about launch few days revenue. The mid-point of our few days revenue total would recommend 100% y/y growth from the iPhone 4S launch. We observe that iPhone 4S increased 135% y/y in its launch few days as opposed to iPhone 4. We believe that some traders may have minor issues regarding Apple's ability to offer 6-10 thousand mobile phones in the discharge few days given the recommended phone revenue per hour at store given the numbers. While we recognize the issue, we remain assured that between ongoing online pre-orders and extended store and country submission, The apple company will be able to provide on the 6-10 thousand device few days revenue anticipations.
Take the midpoint of Munster's forecasts and you get to 8 thousand designs. Munster's "worst situation launch figure" is 6 thousand.

The crazy card here will be provide. Apple's provide pattern hums, but shortages are likely.
Barclays specialist Ben Reitzes said:
The apple company presented the new iPhone 5 and we were satisfied with the speed of the rollout given issues around development shortages. The apple company is designed to spread the iPhone 5 through 240 providers globally by year-end, making it the quickest iPhone launch yet. Our iPhone device reports for the Sept one fourth are the same at 23.43 thousand in situation The apple company encounters product stock outs. However, we calculate iPhone device revenue will increase to 45.21 thousand, up 22.0% y/y and 93% q/q in the Dec one fourth (F1Q13). We believe development plans call for about 50 thousand iPhone 5 designs alone in the Dec one fourth, not such as older designs and expect powerful revenue to continue through the New Season. The main car owner of iPhone revenue strength into mid-calendar 2013 could be Chinese suppliers, where The apple company needs to hit a deal with Chinese suppliers Mobile for the first time.
