According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, Apple initially aimed to delay the iPhone Duo release until November for the U.S. and China markets. However, the device launched in more than 70 countries on Friday, October 23. Gurman notes that Apple rushed the Duo to market without sufficient inventory to meet demand.
The device currently has a January 25 delivery estimate and is reported to be hard to find in stores. The iPhone Duo remains a highly anticipated product, with related roundups and buyer's guides available on MacRumors.
