1.5 million T-Mobile G1s pre-ordered

The first Android phone, the T-Mobile G1, will launch in nine days, on October 22. After it was announced last month, a “limited number” of existing customers were given the chance to pre-order it. It has sold out and T-Mobile has tripled its order to HTC (the manufacturer of the phone). However, these also have been sold out. This means that about 1.5 million Google Android powered phones have been pre-ordered and will hit the customers soon. Is this success? We think so. It’s definitely not the 10 million mark that iPhone 3G may have met, but remember how long it took Apple to sell a million of the original iPhone, when it was available only with AT&T – 74 days.
