Sales of the iPad have topped 100 million in less than two years, Apple announced on Tuesday.

Apple Chief Executive Tim Cook said the sales are "unprecedented for a new product in a new category." He noted that Apple sold more iPads in the June quarter than any PC maker sold of their entire PC lineup.

Cook also revealed that 94 percent of the Fortune 500 companies are now testing or deploying the iPad.

What that means is that Apple shipped only a little over 14M iPads in Q4, well below the street expectation of 17-18M iPads.

That's a pretty astounding number. Apple nailed it with this product.

Doesn't mean that at all. It depends on how much Apple "topped" 100 million by. It could be by 3 million. Or 5 million. Or less than a million. Apple is not going to reveal the exact numbers until earnings this Thursday.
