Posted in: Apple, ipad, Today's Chili
The Apple iPad hit another major milestone on Friday with the sale of the one millionth iPad, after a little less than a month of retail availability. It took 74 days for the first iPhone to hit that number. The company had celebrated the sale of the 500,000th iPad on April 14th.
Apple CEO Steve Jobs said about the milestone, “Demand continues to exceed supply and we’re working hard to get this magical product into the hands of even more customers.”
The iPad first went on sale on April 3rd. In its first 28 days, iPad users have downloaded more than 12 million apps and 1.5 million e-books. The 5,000th iPad app was recently introduced in the iTunes App Store. Including those apps designed for the iPhone, that’s a total of more than 200,000 apps that can run on the device.
The 3G version of the iPad was released on April 30th in the U.S.
