Appolicious – Even with the iPhone 4 debacle not entirely forgotten, around 500,000 consumers ran to their nearest Apple (AAPL) Store on March 11 to purchase a shiny new iPad 2. It was amazing to watch the twitter-verse explode with chatter about the new iPad. It has been said that nearly 70% of these customers were new iPad users and not upgrading from their iPad. This just goes to show the level of satisfaction that comes with being an Apple customer– and how quickly they are adding to their ranks.
