Back on April 2, on Fox News’s Strategy Room, host Clayton Morris asked how many iPads Apple would sell in 2010. This was one day before the Wi-Fi version went on sale. The answers from his guests:

• Jason Snell: 3 million
• Andy Ihnatko: 3 million
• John Gruber: 8 million
• Mike Rose: 4.5-5 million
• Ross Rubin: 5 million
• Natali Del Conte: 5 million
• Clayton Morris: 9 million

The actual answer: 14.8 million.

From Daring Fireball.

I wasn’t invited, but in late April (when some were still saying the iPad was a fad), I predicted this…

When you extrapolate those figures that’s some 15 Million or so iPads Apple will have produced by the end of the year.
