According to TechCrunch, Apple is on a tear with its 3G iPhone and will sell its 12 millionth this week. That means that it will soon match its whole 1st year in sales...in under two months. Depending on the source, Foxcon is producing 150K iPhones a day or a slightly more conservative 800K/week. Either way, that is a lot of iPhones. And, (as Techcrunch notes) what's even more interesting is that that means that the market for iPhone Apps is growing at an astonishing rate as well.

It says they're producing
It says they're producing 150K iphones a day. It didn't include the amount of inventory that Apple had built up previos to releasing the iphone. You're making an assumption that Apple had ZERO inventory on the day of release.
