iPad to best initial iPhone sales?
According to a recent report from the Wall Street Journal on the iPad Apple has taken hundreds of thousands of orders for their latest product – which has raised questions amongst enthusiasts about whether their latest product could potentially best initial iPhone sales.
Back in 2007, Apple managed to sell one million iPhones in 74 days – a solid start for the now ubiquitous smart phone. By comparison, the Apple iPod, launched in 2001, initially looked like a bit of a turkey. Sales remained relatively low quarter after quarter after quarter – and then the device took off, becoming a must-have digital device for consumers of all ages – which smashed Apple in to the spotlight for being the ‘must have’ status symbol.
So is the iPad going to be the hit iPhone from 2007 or the lame duck iPod of 2001? Well, if the latest figures are anything to go by, it would appear that the iPad might just be a big hit internationally.
This comes as news as HP, Google and MSI have announced that they too are bringing tablet PC’s to market.
