iPad hits the 2-million sales mark
(Read article summary)In less than 60 days, Apple has sold 2 million iPad tablets. What does that mean to the book world?
Critics have described it as a device that no one really needs. But customers apparently disagree. Less than two months after its launch, Apple now says it has sold 2 million of its iPad tablets.
As Apple moves forward with its global rollout of the new product (it went on sale in Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Spain, Switzerland and the UK on May 28 and is scheduled to arrive in Austria, Belgium, Hong Kong, Ireland, Luxembourg, Mexico, the Netherlands, New Zealand, and Singapore in July), PCWorld calculates that Apple is on target to sell 7.6 million iPads this year.
