iPod touch, iPhone sales total 37 million units

iPod touch sales and iPhone sales combined total 37 million units, according to Apple's COO.
In a question and answer session with financial analysts during Wednesday’s second quarter earnings call, Apple COO Tim Cook revealed that iPod touch sales have “more than doubled year over year.” Combined, iPhone and iPod touch sales total about 37 million units.
Cook called that combined number an “enormous platform for developers,” adding that with the recent changes introduced with Apple’s iPhone 3.0 SDK, which went beta in March and is expected to be released to customers this summer, Apple and its development partners will soon “unleash a whole new level of innovation that keeps Apple years ahead of everyone else.”
In a later question, Cook again referred to the iPod touch, calling it “a runaway hit” whose success is “clearly driven by the App Store.” To that end, Apple CFO Peter Oppenheimer indicated that one of the reasons the iPod touch has been so successful is as a games device.
