Earlier today we heard from Apple’s CEO Tim Cook that Apple had a record weekend with the launch of the new iPad, and now US mobile carrier AT&T has also announced record sales of Apple’s new tablet.
Just like the apple announcement, AT&T didn’t go into any specific numbers on how many devices were sold instead they said that on launch day, last Friday they had record sales and activations.
On Friday, March 16, AT&T set a new single-day record for its iPad sales and activations, demonstrating robust demand for the new iPad on the nation’s largest 4G network, covering nearly 250 million people.
It will be interesting to see when we finally get some figures from Apple just how many of their new third generation iPad the company managed to sell on launch weekend.
