Over its launch weekend, Apple sold 3 million new iPads. UBS analyst Maynard Um said:
“Apple has sold ~750,000 new iPads per day since launch on Friday…If there are no supply shortages, this would imply a run rate of ~12 million new iPads between launch and the end of the quarter. We continue to believe there could be upside to our 12 million estimate for the quarter.”
Ums is referring to the new iPad only. No matter what people think about Apple, it’s worth mentioning that other companies like Motorola or HP have sold that many tablets in such a short period of time.
