All other points aside, this needs to be addressed: 3 million in 3 weeks were mostly 3G/3GS users upgrading--especially since AT&T offered everyone an early upgrade that'd let them keep their unlimited data plan, which led to everyone scrambling to grab that before AT&T moves to tiered pricing.

3 million in 3 weeks doesn't mean a direct increase in market share. Just thought you should know. On which note, a lot of 3G/3GS users were so pissed off at iOS4 crippling their devices many of them ran for Android. Going by Engadget/BGR commentators, they never looked back.
