Apple ups iPhone purchase limit to five

Filed under: — Aviran Mordo @ 11:21 am

After putting a two-unit limit on purchases of the iPhone back in October, the company has quietly raised the limit back to five.

iPhone Atlas spotted the move on Friday, and Wired also confirmed on Monday that Apple is still not taking cash for the iPhone. At the time the limit was announced, Apple said it wanted to ensure there would be enough supply in hand for the holiday shopping season, which is well under way.

So, either they’ve ramped up production, which would make sense following the European launches, or demand has waned. I don’t see anything that indicates that interest in the iPhone has fallen off, especially at the $399 price, but we’ll know for sure in January following either Macworld or Apple’s earning announcement.
