At the Macworld 2008 event this morning, Apple CEO Steve Jobs announced that the company has sold 4 million iPhones since the device's release and that the device now holds 19.5 percent of the smartphone market in the US.
Jobs also said Apple is shipping on average, 20,000 new iPhones a day but the market share percent still places them behind RIM's BlackBerry.
The CEO also added that new firmware, 1.1.3 for the iPhone would add some nice new features such as "Web Clips", an improved update to Google Maps, song lyrics and the ability to send SMS to multiple recipients.
New applications would also be available on the iPod Touch including standard Mail, Stocks, Notes and Weather. There will however be a catch for Touch users. Existing customers will have to pay $20 USD for the new features while new customers will have it built in.
