By their own admission the immediate mass sales impact of Apple’s new iPad, released in April this year, “caught them off guard.” In the first quarter of its launch date the iPad attracted a massive 3.27 million buyers resulting in Apple struggling to meet consumer demands. As a consequence the popular device was taking between 7 and 10 days to be shipped out to eagerly awaiting customers.
Despite reducing the arrears to 3 to 5 days Apple were still under pressure to manufacture the in-demand product but have recently announced a 24-hour turn around for the iPad, when purchased from Apple’s official online store.
Built with the same iOS foundation as the iPhone, the iPad was an instant success with business users and hit record sales of a million in 28 days, almost three times as quick as the iPhone reached the same target. Apple naysayers cast doubts as to whether iPad would have any beneficial functionality in the office environment, but have been made to eat their own words.
The iPad’s user-friendly iOS has enabled businesses to easily integrate software into their IT infrastructure and simplify the management and security of their system. The latest model has also seen significant upgrades to further improve its business functionality and security system.
