AT&T scored record sales the first day the iPhone 3GS hit store shelves, an internal memo shows.
The Apple smartphone, released June 19, was responsible for several milestones, including a "best-ever sales day" in the company's retail stores and the second-largest traffic day in the stores, according to the memo sent to all AT&T employees, and leaked to the
Wall Street Journal's All Things Digital and
MacDailyNews. AT&T said the iPhone 3GS was also responsible for the most transactions processed by its IT systems in a single day and the largest order day ever on att.com.
