The suppliers are matching the high volume of iPad buyers, so two more research companies are increasing in a very dramatic way their expected sales numbers:
iSuppli had estimated that the iPad would shift 7 million units in 2010.
Now gives a figure of 12.9 million units.
And ABI Research has tripled its original estimate, now expecting 11 million units.
Remember that Apple sold three million iPad 80 days after its launch.
And this huge demand delayed the iPad launch outside USA.
My own estimation is that Apple is selling right now two million iPad a month.
And will end the year around the 15 million mark.
These are fantastic numbers.
One reason?
Schools and universities are becoming big markets.
What’s next?
Lower prices and more iPad models.
Another reason not to miss the INMA/NIEMAN/INNOVATION Harvard Tablet Summit.
Cambridge, December 2-3, 2010.
A Worldwide Summit to learn, master and share new ideas.
Be there!
