Samsung Jet Smartphone Pre-Orders Hit 2 Million Jet Outstrips iPhone 3G S Orders

Samsung must be rubbing their hands together with glee having confirmed
that they have already received 2 million advance orders for its Jet
OLED touchscreen phone in just one week especially when you consider
that Apple have apparently received around 1 million advance orders of
its new iPhone 3G S since its official release during the weekend.
Admittedly, the figures are not directly comparable, however, as
Samsung, unlike Apple (who have opted for a more gradual international
rollout of its iPhone 3G S) offered up its Jet for advance orders in a
total of 50 countries simultaneously. Still, few would argue that
gaining 2 million pre-orders within a week is not a pretty impressive
achievement especially when you also consider that the enormously
popular LG Arena, for example, took a month to establish the same number
of orders.
