While that may be an option, Apple always forces an update whenever you need to use a new feature. So try to resist as much as you want, but a tiny new feature will not work with the older version...

Yeah, they do have a tendency to do that.

Apple Sells One Millionth iPhone

CUPERTINO, Calif., Sept. 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Apple(R) today
announced it sold its one millionth iPhone(TM) yesterday, just 74 days after
its introduction on June 29. iPhone combines three devices into one-a mobile
phone, a widescreen iPod(R), and the best mobile Internet device ever-all
based on Apple's revolutionary multi-touch interface and pioneering software
that allows users to control iPhone with just a tap, flick or pinch of their
fingers.
"One million iPhones in 74 days-it took almost two years to achieve this
milestone with iPod," said Steve Jobs, Apple's CEO. "We can't wait to get this
revolutionary product into the hands of even more customers this holiday
season."
Apple ignited the personal computer revolution in the 1970s with the Apple
II and reinvented the personal computer in the 1980s with the Macintosh.
Today, Apple continues to lead the industry in innovation with its award-
winning computers, OS X operating system and iLife and professional
applications. Apple is also spearheading the digital media revolution with its
iPod portable music and video players and iTunes online store, and has entered
the mobile phone market this year with its revolutionary iPhone.

Unlock day for iPhone from the clutches of AT&T is here. Apple looses exclusive control on iPhone completely now.

iPhoneSIMfree's end-user solution tested, it works!

version of their software SIM unlock solution, and the promise that it would be available for purchase today. We can't confirm that anyone's actually received their iPhone unlock orders, but we did get to test the release version of the software unlock today -- the very same thing people all over will be paying to unlock their devices with -- and, not surprisingly, it works like a charm. In other words, while we can't vouch for any of the vendors selling the software, we can vouch for the software itself working exactly as advertised. We've got the full unlock on video, which we'll be posting shortly.

Couple this with the price drop, hitting the one million mark and having loads of native third party applications for the iPhone already - all without voiding your warranty - and you can already see iPhone sales hitting the roof! :D

Yeah, Nokia shipped (not sold) 5m units of 6300 and 1.5m units of N95 all over the world in three months.
Apple sold (not shipped) 1m units of the iPhone in two and a half months only in the United States of America and that too when it was locked to a carrier.

There is no comparison whatsoever.

But the reports say that 6300 <i>SOLD</i> 5 mln units.... :)

Anyways, one little bit of personal information... its weird that Nokia is said to be the top mobile phone brand in terms of sales in US... but since my 2 years of stay at CA, I have seen that most people use MotoRazr, blackberry, WM6 PDAs and iPhones.... seen like 10-15 Nokia phones till date and that too nearly all are N95s... :D
