Somehow, everyone knew that the iPad was going to be a hit even before Apple launched it. What we didn’t know was that it would sell like hotcakes, to the tune of two million iPads since its launch on April 3rd. Actually, with the way things went the past two months, it’s probably safe to say that the iPad actually outsold hotcakes. While we can’t present hard data to back that up, we’ve never seen people complaining about not getting their hotcakes or wondering about when they can buy their hotcakes in a particular country.
Also, Apple just began shipping internationally to Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Spain, Switzerland and the UK this past weekend, and should continue the iPad World Domination tour when they ship to nine more countries next month, and to more countries before the year ends. Crazy, right? It’s been so successful that they’ve apparently started introducing the iPad to galaxies far, far away.
