 Considering how many result we got, the survey we did a month ago satisfied us fully. 566 persons answered the questionnaire which is enough to assume a good distribution of the people who participated to the survey.

The typical iPhone user's is a man, single, between 18 and 35 years old that have studied up to a master degree. Considering the income, we noticed that it is evenly distributed among iPhone's owners.

Note that most people who took the survey where Apple's customer before getting an iPhone : 35% of them had a Mac. The Apple's way of designing products seems to satisfy its customers.

Concerning applications, Steve Jobs wanted to put together a phone, an iPod and a computer. Considering video game popularity (82%) on the platform it seems that there is also a portable games console in the bundle. Notice that considering the diversity of profile on the set of people taking the survey, the iPhone is not a games console for hard core gamers but for every one. It is video games that people are the most likely to buy spontaneously (68% of the cases).

Answers concerning the price's threshold under which people buy spontaneously shows how much the pricing policy is important : 0.79 € seems to be the main psychologic threshold.

The document presents graphical representations of the results for each class of users but it's been only released in french.
