AppleInsider | Suppliers indicate Apple will ship as many as 14M iPads next quarter

Apple is set to dramatically boost shipments of the iPad 2 next quarter, with overseas suppliers indicating the total number of units shipped will be between 12 million and 14 million.

If Apple were to ship 14 million iPad 2 units in the next quarter, it would be a number nearly three times greater than the 4.69 million units sold by Apple in its March quarter. That number was considered by Wall Street to be a mild disappointment.

That’s another indicator of the sea change going on in society. I asked a pal this morning, Rachel Weidlinger, how she keeps track of everything in her crazy busy life, and she showed me a worn paper organizer. The she said, ‘but I expect I’ll be moving to a tablet, because I’ll be able to write on it, as well as type.”

The coming liquid world: and Apple iPad and touch interfaces are a major factor in that revolution.
