According to a report by Piper Jeffray analyst Gene Munster, one-third of high school students now own an iPhone. In addition to the 36% that said they own an iPhone, 40% of respondents to the survey said that they plan on buying an iPhone in the next six months. This isn’t including iPod Touches, which are likely incredibly popular in schools, as they are contract-free. Looking at this over the long-term, this market penetration by Apple will be incredibly valuable as the high school students have more independent purchasing power.
