Although its not released yet but even after its official announcement on 4th May, it has gathered much
of the limelight. Talks are in the air about its release on 29th May but still one can pre-order Sammy's Galaxy SIII and the eyebrow-raising number of Pre-Orders so far are enough to take your breath away.
Now take a deep breath before you proceed further, the guys at Sammy received an epic 9 Million pre-orders for the Samsung Galaxy SIII from 100 carriers around the globe. Thats more than double of actual shipments in 2 months of its predeccesor Samsung Galaxy SII which were 4 million in two months from the release date and 20 million in 10 months. But hey its just announced yet not physically released & its already touching 10 million, so you can imagine how much heights this figure will gain for the actual units shipped/sold after it will be released, fingers crossed.
