o Apple Sells Record 9 Million iPhones in First Weekend

Cupertino, Calif. -- Apple said on Monday it sold a record 9 million new iPhone 5s and 5c models in the first three days after their launch on Friday. The Cupertino-based company said that demand for the more-expensive 5s already has exceeded initial supply, leading to shipping delays for many online orders. "The demand for the new iPhones has been incredible, and while we've sold out of our initial supply of iPhone 5s, stores continue to receive new iPhone shipments regularly," CEO Tim Cook said in a statement. "We appreciate everyone's patience." The faster 5s, which includes a fingerprint security sensor, starts at $199, while the cheaper 5c, available in five colors, starts at $99. In addition, Apple said that more than 200 iOS devices are now running its new iOS 7 software.
