It's probably pretty hard to get an accurate number, but what might be considered is how many people would have bought a 5s in the last three days if they simply could have walked in with out a lineup and purchased, with no supply shortages?

It gets complex, because if there weren't supply shortages, people would be less willing to go and get one NOW.


Anyway, one of our guys is complaining about his phone (I think a 4s) not working very well, and I'm tasked to get him a new phone. Are 5s's sold out everywhere? Do I even consider getting a 5c for jobsite abuses? Or would the 5C be more durable because it's made of plastic? I'm assuming I could go and get a 5C rather easily?
