Tim Cook confirms June launch for iPhone and 90 million iPods sold
Apple's chief operating officer, Tim Cook has confirmed 90 million iPod sales since October 2001 and confirmed a June launch for iPhone remains on target.
Cook was speaking at the Goldman Sachs 2007 Technology Investment Symposium Conference. He stressed Apple's expectation of selling ten million of its mobile phones in 2008, but warned that it's "too early" to tell if the release of iPhone will impact against iPod sales.
