Apple has allegedly exceeded the lofty goal of 10,000,000 iPhone's sold in 2008, according to Mac Observer. The report tracks every iPhone's 15-digit individual IMEI -- or International Mobile Equipment Identity – which contains a series of numbers that relate to production levels and was then deduced down to find the approximate number of sales. Many Wall Street analysts felt that Apple’s iPhone sales would fall short of this goal by years end, but the goal has apparently already been meet and the holiday spending spree has yet to start. The official Apple announcement will no doubt come during Steve Jobs' annual Macword keynote where he addresses shareholders and media alike.
