Apple surely has created enough hype and hoopla with its brand new product - iPad. Several consumers, gadget fanboys, and other tech evangelists had plans to buy the iPad well before it was launched. Apple now claims to have sold over two million iPads in less than two months of its launch. That must've brought Apple loads of revenue. Recently, the fruit themed toy maker surpassed Microsoft to become one of the biggest tech organization.  

The iPad, available in WiFi and 3G+WiFi models, will be sold in nine countries (names unknown so far) in July. The iPad is selling like hot cakes in U.S. and Apple is trying its best keep up the demand up. In an official statement, Apple CEO Steve Jobs said, "Customers around the world are experiencing the magic of iPad, and seem to be loving it as much as we do. We appreciate their patience, and are working hard to build enough iPads for everyone."  

It's a mix audience of those who love iPad, those who hate iPad and many waiting for its prices to come down.

Let's not forget that the Apple Worldwide Developer Conference 2010 is due to start in next six days where Apple is expected to announce the next generation iPhone 4G along with iPhone OS 4.0 update release. We've got to wait and watch how Apple will keep up with supply of iPad to rest of the world along with that of iPhone 4G.

"He proposed!". I presume it was due to the iPad?
