I've a friend whose company released a decent quality branded App on the Market recently. It was backed by a good amount of advertising/marketing and was pitched at the correct demographic.

The total number of paid week one sales?

68

Which comes out to 3500 per year. That's not bad, and is in the ballpark of the median iOS app.

Thats week one with a big marketing push..we see at least that amount per day for our paid branded apps, and they have been around over a year and receive no marketing spend.

I'm pretty sure the sales will drop off, like any iOS app.
