Apple Sells Three Million iPads in Just Three Days

Apple sets another record by selling three million iPads in three days since the launch date of its new flavor of iPad. The new iPad mini and iPad fourth generation doubled the previous weekend sale of iPad 3 Wi-Fi only models with 1.5 million sales in March.

Apple CEO Tim Cook sent out a note with the new record breaking milestone of its iPad series. “Customers around the world love the new iPad mini and fourth generation iPad. We set a new launch weekend record and practically sold out of iPad minis. We're working hard to build more quickly to meet the incredible demand,” Cook said.

Both iPad mini and the new fourth generation iPad with Retina display are available in 34 countries including the US, Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Japan, South Korea and the UK. It will soon be available in many more countries later this year.
