Loading...Celebrate Another Apple Milestone
In the Apple event, heralding the birth of the new iPad Mini, a 13-inch MacBook Pro, and a smaller iMac, Tim Cook announced another milestone that is sure to spark an ecstatic reaction from Apple lovers, specifically the iPad aficionados. Apple has recently reached a wonderful feat: It has successfully sold 100 million iPads in two years, since the entrance of the iPad in 2010. What’s more? He gladly presented that Apple iPad owns over 91% of the over-all web traffic coming from tablet computers.
Tim Cook wonderfully bragged how tech consumers love the iPads, especially the rich ecosystem of applications that it can foster. As a matter of fact, this is parallel to what Steve Jobs had thought about the future of iPads. Since its birth, the demand for iPads has been much stronger than those of laptops and desktop computers. Two weeks ago, iPad sales were at 84 million. After including some of the most recent data plus the possible numbers the iPad Mini can contribute to the statistics, it is not surprising that another milestone will be easily reached in a few weeks’ or months’ time.
If truth be told, this is not the first success that Apple is rejoicing over. Below is the list of the company’s success lap full of metrics and milestones:
