Analyst: BlackBerry PlayBook sales beat forecasts
not too bad considering limited distribution, no verizon support, no AT&T support, no advertising campaign and lackluster reviews from many sources
Research In Motion may have sold more BlackBerry PlayBook tablets than analysts expected, as many as 50,000 on the first day alone, according to RBC Capital Markets analyst Mike Abramsky.

Limited distribution? It opened in thousands of stores! 50k (at best) is pathetic.

the sales included presales approx 25,000. it was released to North America only, via Future Shop, Best Buy, Staples, and Sears being the major retailers selling it.

So 50k first day sales including 25k pre-orders... impressive ;-)
A survey of 70 retails outlets indicated on the first day of sales, 11 per cent of stores sold out the RIM Playbook - certainly consumer interest could not be compared to the iPad release.
