Steve Jobs is pleased to see the Apple iPhone 3G sales booming, easily beating the original iPhone sales figures.

Apple today announced it sold its one millionth iPhone 3G on Sunday, just three days after its launch on Friday, July 11. The Apple iPhone 3G is now available in 21 countries -- Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Hong Kong, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, UK and the US -- and will go on sale in France on July 17.

Steve Jobs is of course pleased, noting that it took 74 days to sell the first one million iPhones, so the new iPhone 3G is clearly off to a great start around the world.

The new iPhone 3G combines all the features of the original iPhone plus 3G networking, built-in GPS for expanded location-based mobile services, and iPhone 2.0 software which includes support for Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync and runs over 800 third party applications available through the new App Store.

In the US, the new Apple iPhone 3G is priced at $199 for the 8GB model and $299 for the 16GB model when signing up for a two-year contract with AT&T Wireless.
