Apple is overwhelmed with the rocketing sales of iPad all over world. Apple started shipping iPad to the customers outside US in late May. Making the device available in more and more countries would drive the device sales to even higher numbers. As for the stats, Apple had sold 30 million iPads in 80 days until June this year. Also the app support for the device is increasing linearly with Apple announcing 11000 available iPad apps.
