Samsung consegna più di un milione di Galaxy S negli States

Si, avete letto bene: più di un milione di Galaxy S che fino ad oggi significano soprattutto Captivate (At&t) e Vibrant (T-Mobile) visto che Epic (Sprint) sarà in vendita il prossimo martedì e Fascinate (Verizon) a partire dal 9 Settembre. Occorre una precisazione: non si parla solo di esemplari venduti ma di numero di dispositivi consegnati (shipped) agli stores. Ma, date le indubbie qualità della serie Galaxy, non è impossibile aspettarsi risultati di tutto rispetto in breve tempo.

Ricordo che per Settembre è previsto l’aggiornamento a FroYo anche per gli esemplari europei.

Dopo il break il comunicato ufficiale (in inglese) di Samsung.
