Apple appears to have moved another major shipment of iPhones to the US, as 116 the 165 US Apple Stores now have iPhones in stock. California appears to have been a big beneficiary of yesterday's shipment; now only the Fresno, San Luis Obispo, and Santa Rosa stores are out of stock.


A big thank you goes to both MacDailyNews.com and The iPod Observer who both linked to our map yesterday. We hope our new visitors find the maps useful and visit our blog as well. It's a serious commitment to manually transcribe the Apple Store data into XML and compile the iPhone Buzz Index every day, so it's gratifying to see so much interest. Keep your eyes peeled for a new way of looking at this data in the next week or so; we are working on distilling down some additional data to provide more insight into iPhone distribution and sales.

I did get a comment from a reader asking for mapping of AT&T stocks as well. I don't really cover AT&T and I don't have an automated feed from them, so I see no way to accommodate that request currently. However, there is another mapping site that claims to provide AT&T iPhone mapping as well as eBay auction availability for iPhones in your area. It's quite a remarkable effort; you can see it at http://iphone.findnearby.net. I have no connection with them, but I was impressed with their mashup of multiple feeds; I have enough trouble keeping up with just one.
