From Techmeme we find an interesting article that shows us the graphs of iPod vs iPhone searches on the American Online market.

As you can see for yourself, ipodvsiphone, iPhone searches started as early as August 2006 but were close to nothing; same in September, October, November. December started to spread some more rumors, but still an insignifiant number of searches compared to the ones for the iPod. However… January came and with it a HUGE peak in internet searches.

The lean guys from weblogs.hitwise.com also give us the list of the sites receiving all this huge traffic. On the first position, off course, Apple Computer, followed by Apple iPhone Blog – now that’s a lucky site owner. Surprinsingly, MySpace is on the fifth position, tightly behind Engadget – I say surprisingly, since after all Engadget IS the most trustful ressource for everything gadget related.

Hmm… quite interesting, ain’t it? We’ll just see what the future brings, and whether the search in interest for the iPhone is more than just a temporary fashion. I guess we’ll have to wait until August for this…
