After launching around the world and on just about every carrier in the US, it took the LG Optimus One just 40 days to crash through its 1 millionth sale.

Less than 25 days after that, it’s gone and kicked things up a notch: according to LG, they’ve just sold their 2 millionth unit.

The Optimus One is by no means a monster when it comes to the hardware, and the marketing surrounding it has been pretty low key; some times, being cheap (around $280 without contract) and available in countries where Android handsets are few and far between is all it takes.
