1M+ iPads Sold Include Wi-Fi + 3G Version

Cupertino, Calif.
– Apple’s iPad got off the ground faster than Apple’s first iPhone, and
supplies are still short, Apple said.

The company sold
its millionth iPad through to U.S.
consumers last Friday after 28 days on the market, whereas it took 74 days for
the company to sell a million iPhones when the phone was launched in 2007 as an
unsubsidized phone. AT&T later subsidized the phone.

Apple CEO Steve
Jobs admitted that “demand continues to exceed supply,” and he said the
company is “working hard” to remedy the situation.

Friday’s iPad
figures also include sales of the Wi-Fi + 3G version, which went on sale late
Friday, a spokesman told TWICE. Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster estimated
300,000 iPad 3Gs were sold to consumers over the weekend, including preorders
and online sales. Models were available in Apple stores and Best Buy stores.

Apple has said it
sold more than 300,000 iPads in the

first
weekend

of its availability. At that time, the company said sales include
deliveries of pre-ordered iPads to consumers, sales through Apple’s stores, and
deliveries to non-retail and retail channel partners such as Best Buy.
