AT&T really benefited enormously from its alliance with Apple. Specifically, AT&T claimed a record 2.7 million new customers in the quarter. Apple reported in its January 22 press release that it sold 2,315,000 iPhones in the same quarter. Obviously, AT&T indirectly benefited from those sales, since approximately only 400,000 of its new subscribers did not come with new iPhones in their hands.
