Piper Jaffray's Gene Munster sees a blockbuster weekend for Apple's (NASDAQ: AAPL) iPhone 5 but he is backing off his earlier projections.
Munster sees 8 million iPhone 5s sold over the opening weekend, versus his prior suggestion of 6-10 million. The analyst cited presale lines in various major cities, which are up 83 percent from last year.
Separately, commentators on CNBC said, "10 million is the high end of views, but anything less than 8 million may be a disappointment."
The world may soon know the actual figure. Munster expects an official release from Apple on Monday about the opening weekend results.
He is maintaining his Overweight rating and price target of $910.00.
