Since the PlayBook didn’t launch with much fanfare among the gadget reviewer community, sales are expected to be lower than previously estimated by RIM, right? Well, according to Peter Misek of Jeffries & Co., RIM sold an estimated 25,000 units in pre-orders and another 20,000 in retail stores. Keep in mind the iPad 2 sold 300,000 units in its first weekend and all the other Android tablets probably less than 45,000 (but that’s just an estimate, right?).

A day after Steve Jobs leaves Apple on medical leave for conditions unknown, Apple releases record Q1 profits and sales. $6 billion in profits was made from $26.7 billion in revenue, 16.2 million iPhone 4s were sold (86% up in sales), 7.33 million iPads, 4.31 million Macs (up 23%), and $19.45 million iPods (a 7% decline). Needless to say, these amazing numbers further cements Apple as one of the best producers of the gadgets you know and love. Well done, Steve & Cupertino. Via: Apple PR
Going far, far ahead of the projected 5 million Kinect units projected by year’s end by Microsoft, Microsoft sold 8 million Kinects (or just Kinect?) in two month’s time. It’s true — motion-gaming is really here, and is selling in large numbers for the Xbox 360.
Update: Microsoft just clarified that the 8 million Kinects sold statement was the amount shipped to retailers, although they have surpassed 5 million in sales.

Their personal milestone was reached — 10 million Galaxy S phones sold worldwide. 4 million are credited to the North American region, and then 2.5 million from Europe. Not a single one of them with Android 2.2 or Android 2.3 in the United States at all. And so, we wait for Froyo. Then Gingerbread.

This is a major increase in sales/activations, but the simple one-liner from Andy Rubin on Twitter leaves much more info to be desired. Nevertheless, Andy Rubin has stated that there are 300,000 Android phones being activated each and everyday, which is much different than shipping phones, in which case they aren’t activated for consumer use. It’s a great fact for Android as a whole, however. Via: Twitter (Andy Rubin)
High-fives for Samsung? Whereas the iPad sold 1 million units in 1 month, the Galaxy Tab is trailing at 1 million in 2 months, with an extra 500,000 projected before the end of the year. Considering I like the Galaxy Tab, and that I’m still waiting on our demo device, it deserves that milestone. Via: CNET, CG
Microsoft produces the most popular operating system of all time for PCs. After getting slapped back and forth on the mobile space, a new market to create, sell, and rule, Redmond decided enough was enough and set its eyes on Windows Phone 7. Long story short, they have 5 devices in the United States, and not one report has originated with solid info on how many have been sold. Handsets like the Dell Venue Pro are hard to find, but not because they aren’t selling; only a few are in stock and users buy them on the spot.
It immediately begs the question why, since Microsoft has been so keen on releasing Windows Phone 7, making all of their devices “wonderfully mine” (a motto for the campaign) and designing what can only be described as a good start, many times better than when Palm launched the Pre, and which failed in the longterm.
And now onto your usual programming.
This is either extremely false (which it just might be) or extremely legit, and if it is the former, then my god, this is funny. Windows Phone 7, a promising operating system, in direct competition with Android in particular, launched a few days ago. Reports are coming out of the possible sales numbers than Microsoft saw for the new WP7 devices: about 40,000. Microsoft has declined to comment on those nubmers, and T-Mobile states that customers are purchasing handsets from them in reasonable numbers.
Before you start crying fowl, please direct that sort of anger with your grenades, pitchforks, and other dangerous items to The Street and Scott Moritz. Thanks.
And now on with the usual programming.
