>Its newest smartphone, the four-inch iPhone SE, went on sale in late March, too late to affect the most recent quarterly results, but analysts hope to get more insight into how it is selling.

Went to the Apple Store in my large metro and they were out of almost every model. The associate searched other stores and there wasn't much within 1500 miles. Anecdotal, but it looks like the demand is outpacing the supply of the iPhone SE. It'll be interesting to see the sales numbers.

Two to three weeks from the Apple Store when I checked this morning. I don't know if it's heavier-than-expected demand, or if they just don't keep that many in the pipeline (which I guess amounts to the same thing). My wife just broke hers (yes, again), so the plan is to at some point give her my 6S and I get a new 5SE, because I want my smaller screen back. It would seem that perhaps I'm not the only one.
On the conference call, Cook mentioned that they are still supply constrained on the SE - they are still selling all they can build as fast as they build them.
