We have heard Apple and Steve Jobs stress a number of time that they are taking every possible  measure to keep up with the increasing demand for iPhone 4. But if that's not convincing for you, this news will definitely convince you. Foxconn founder Terry Gou, while talking to Businessweek, revealed that his company is now manufacturing 137,000  iPhone 4 units each day.

If you are a maths fanatic, that's 90 units of stainless steel phone produced every single minute or more importantly around 50 million units manufactured on a yearly basis. This interesting stats is also an indication that the antennagate issue hasn't affected the iPhone 4 demand one little and is pretty much on the wish list of many smartphone users.

It is worth mentioning that Foxconn is the company which was given the charge of  manufacturing the high flying iPhone 4 by the Cupertinos. Based on these impressive count revealed by the Foxconn founder, you can't question the Cupertinos' decision of partnering up with them and Apple has full belief in them as reflected by Tim Cook, Apple’s chief operating officer:

Terry is a strong leader with a passion for excellence,  “He’s a trusted partner and we are fortunate to work with him.
