Apple Reports Record Fourth Quarter Results

Apple, reporting over $20 billion in revenue and $4.3 billion in profit:

Apple sold 3.89 million Macs during the quarter, a 27 percent unit increase over the year-ago quarter. The Company sold 14.1 million iPhones in the quarter, representing 91 percent unit growth over the year-ago quarter. Apple sold 9.05 million iPods during the quarter, representing an 11 percent unit decline from the year-ago quarter. The Company also sold 4.19 million iPads during the quarter.

14 million iPhones strikes me as surprisingly high (and the final nail in Antennagate’s coffin). 4.19 million iPads actually sounds a little low to me, though. I would have guessed 5 million.
