| 3.24 million iPads sold to date. |
All the news and negative publicity reporting problems with reception and dropped calls due to the design of the iPhone 4 seem to have had little, if any effect on consumers who have shown their desire for the latest Apple offerings with strong sales numbers. In fact, the iPhone was its best-selling product for a second straight quarter, generating $5.33 billion on 8.4 million units. Apple also sold 3.24 million iPads.
Apple Inc. posted a 78 perecent surge in third-quarter profit as customers flocked to the new iPad table computer and the latest version of the iPhone (4). Net income rose to $3.25 billon, or $3.5 a share, from $1.83 billion or $2.01, a year earlier, Apple reported Tuesday after the stock markets had closed.
