During fiscal 2007, Apple began selling the iPhone and Apple TV. Currently, the economic lives of these products are estimated to be 24 months, according to Apple. In July 2008, Apple began selling the iPhone 3G, the second-generation iPhone. It significantly expanded distribution by establishing carrier relationships in over 70 countries. Unit sales of iPhone 3G have been significantly greater than sales of the first-generation iPhone. During the first quarter of iPhone 3G availability ended September 27, 2008, 6.9 million units were sold, exceeding the 6.1 million first-generation iPhone units sold in the prior five quarters combined. As a result of this growth in unit sales, the amount of iPhone revenue and product cost that the Company deferred for recognition in future periods under subscription accounting increased materially in the quarter ended September 27, 2008.
