A blogger has put together earnings estimates for Apple compared to Wall Street analysts for Q4′08.  Earnings come out today at 5pm.  I just think it will be interesting to see – who comes closer – Analysts or a Blogger……The Blogger (Zaky) estimates that iPhones sold in Q4 will be 7.5 million unites or 85% higher than the Street’s 4.0 million estimate.

    I wish some other group used the wisdom of the crowds method so that all three methods could be compared against.

    Wow, that was a very good guess by the Blogger. The actual number was 6.9M units shipped. That is a crazy number of iPhones, I cover the name, and I was shocked to see it that high. That goes to show you what international sales will do for you. Cheers.
