A chart by CNN FORTUNE depicts the incredible sales trajectory of the iPad since its launch. The consensus is roughly 8.25 million units sold.
We know that the company sold 3.27 million in Q3. The estimates for Q4 we've gathered in advance of the company's Oct. 18 earnings report range from a low of 3.8 million from an uncharacteristically conservative Brian Marshall at Gleacher & Co. to a high of 6 million from the Apple Finance Board's Robert Paul Leitao, one of the amateur analysts whose estimates have proved in the past considerably more dependable than the professionals'.
According to CNBC, "this sales rate is blowing past the one million units the iPhone sold in its first quarter and the 350,000 units sold in the first year by the DVD player, the most quickly adopted non-phone electronic product."
