In its article, Will the
iPhone be the Apple of Apple's
Eye?, Harris Interactive reports,
"The iPhone is a revolutionary new
product that has the potential to turn
the technology world on its ear and
with the anxiously awaited Apple®
product expected to be available this
June, Harris Interactive® recently
took a quick pulse of American adults
to determine how strong the buzz
really is. Although iPhone is not yet
a household word, 47 percent of
respondents were aware of the product
and a full 17 percent expressed
interest in purchasing it, which makes
for a pretty loud buzz from consumers
for a product that isn’t yet
available."
Harris Interactive continues, "Perhaps a more interesting question to ask is when U.S. adults would buy this product. Of those expressing interest to purchase, nine percent say they would buy at product launch and another eight percent would buy before their current wireless service contract expired. About 17 percent say they would wait for their current wireless contract to expire before purchasing and 25 percent would purchase it - when their existing wireless carrier offers the iPhone. Finally, a full 40 percent of buyers intend to wait for the price to come down."
Additionally, Harris Interactive writes, "Commenting on the survey results Joseph Porus, Vice President of Harris Interactive’s Technology Practice said, 'Apple's new iPhone has shaken the industry to its core. Look for strong sales and a new cult to develop around iPhone. Also expect increased orders for midnight oil as competitors scramble to play catch-up.'"
