We are increasing our March quarter iPhone estimates from 30.1M to 32.6M units...Our January checks indicated iPhone 4S was the top-selling model at AT&T (NYSE: T), Sprint (NYSE: S), and Verizon (NYSE: VZ), and we anticipate strong March quarter iPhone sales in international markets including China. As a result, we are increasing our March quarter iPhone unit estimate from 30.1M to 32.6M units."
