Searches for 'iphone' by Australian Internet users increased by 95 percent between the weeks ending April 5, 2008 and June 7, 2008, according to Hitwise Australia. No wonder the media has been giving Apple's latest handset so much attention.
An amazing 5000-plus variations on the search expression were seen during the four weeks leading up to 11 June, including 'iphone australia', '3g iphone', 'iphone review', 'vodafone iphone' and 'iphone optus'.
