9:14 AAPL Apple iPhone is AT&T's top-selling handset, according to analyst - The Register(173.50 ) -Update-

The Register reports according to mkt watcher Strategy Analytics, the Apple handset has become AT&T's top-selling phone, accounting for 13% of the carrier's device sales. SA also claimed the iPhone was the fourth best-selling mobile phone in the US during Q3, having been bought by almost 1.1 mln Americans. That figure - if correct; it's only preliminary data at this stage - takes the total iPhone userbase to 1.325 mln, the analyst reckons. On the basis of sales to date, Barry Gilbert, VP of Strategy Analytics' BuyerTRAX programmes, forecast the device could top the charts in the near future. "The sales trajectory we are observing with the iPhone could make it the top selling device in the US over the next one or two quarters," he said.
