Apple New iPad Shipped to 25 New Countries, Sold 3 Million Units in 1 Week

In a bid to sell more units, Apple shipped New iPad units to 25 different countries today. This is after 7 days since iPad 3 has been released in the United States including 11 other different countries.
Apple’s New iPad comes packed with great features and the most popular among them is Apple’s signature Retina Display which is reported built specifically for iOS devices. According to our sources, the next device to get Retina Display would be iPhone 5, although there are rumors the company will for a 4.6-inch display instead of the traditional 3.5″ screen.

Retina Display is said to have 3.1 million pixels compressed into a 9.7 inches screen on the New iPad. This ensures that Apple’s latest flagship will come with great picture and display. HD TVs have around 2 million pixels distributed into a 42″ screen but still you are amazed by the quality of pictures or videos. Just imagine adding another 1 million pixels to that screen and compress it into a much smaller one like iPad’s.
The New iPad was initially released in the US, the UK, Canada, Singapore, France, Australia, Germany, Japan, Switzerland, Hong Kong, the US Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico where according to Philip Schiller, Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide Marketing, sold three million units in just a week after it was released.
Having sold 3 million units in 1 week is a record-high sales projection in tablet market. In fact, no other device came close to this record.
The next 25 countries targeted by Apple are: Austria, Bulgaria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Greece, the Czech Republic, Ireland, Iceland, Hungary, Luxembourg, Liechtenstein, Norway, New Zealand, Mexico, Macau, The Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia and Slovenia, Italy and Romania.
Even if the New iPad could come half its performance in the first week in these countries, it would still be a huge success for the company.
While the New iPad is the newest craze in town, still it’s not as perfect as most people think. In fact, there are already hundreds of owners who flooded Apple’s Support forum with problems they have experienced and one of them is the poor Wi-Fi connectivity. The company may be so busy for now that they don’t have time to reply to their customers.
Apparently, Apple is in the process of spreading its new units. Addressing the owners’ problems may come later when everything settles down.
The New iPad is actually one of the most wanted devices this year. So, would you get yourself one of those?
