Analyst Gene Munster told clients that Piper Jaffray tracked iPhone, iPod and Mac sales in Apple stores across the U.S. After the Sept. 5 price cut of US$200, iPhone sales increased 56 percent at the retail stores.
Since his last round of checks in July and August, Munster said that Mac sales were down by some 39 percent (from an average of 153 Macs sold per store per day to 94). However, he says that's to be expected since the back-to-school buying season had ended. The analyst still expects Apple to report Mac sales of approximately 2.0 million to 2.1 million for the financial quarter that ended in September.
When it comes to iPods, Munster estimate that nanos account for 39 percent of sales, iPod touches for 36 percent, shuffles 16 percent and the iPod classic, nine percent. Piper Jaffray thinks Apple will report sales of approximately 10.6 million units for the September quarter.
