Wait wait!

Let me do my best Woody impression.

"Nice sales figures! You learned that skill at business school, I bet!"

LOLOL! How did I do?
Not bad, if you could ram your head into a concert wall a half dozed times it might improve the impersonation....

I know. With every post, he just shows how uninformed he is. He should stick to posting on something he knows about.... oh wait a minute, never mind.

More correctly it reminds me more of your 'Bubba Thread' for the inane way it drones on and on and on!....

iPad Dubbed Best Selling Gadget Ever
October 12th, 2010 at 1:07 PM - News by Jeff Gamet

Apple’s iPad has turned the tablet computer industry on its ear and has already the the title of best selling gadget ever. Bernstein Research analyst Colin McGranahan estimates Apple has sold over 8.5 million iPads since its April launch, and sales don’t seem to be letting up.

Mr. McGranahan said the iPad is “a runaway success of unprecedented proportion,” according to InformationWeek.



Apple’s iPad: Best selling gadget in history

The iPad is a tablet computer device with a 9.7-inch multi-touch display. It runs iOS, like the iPhone and iPod touch, and is compatible with most iPhone apps, too.

Assuming Apple can keep up with demand, iPad sales have the potential to increase even more. Just this month both Target and Walmart signed on as iPad distributors, joining Best Buy and Amazon.com, giving consumers even more potential purchase locations.

The fast approaching holiday shopping season typically sees an upswing in Apple product purchases, too.

While the iPad’s sales figures are good news for Apple, they aren’t so welcome for other PC makers. According to data from the research group NPD, some 13 percent of shoppers buying iPads said they would’ve bought a PC instead if Apple’s multimedia tablet device hadn’t been available.

It more like a Gayass/Avatar thread. If it a hit, it's brainwashing. If it a failure, it's whatever Peckerhead wants it to be.
