In Europe, each Apple country orders products from the mothership according to their marketing experience and expectations. According to a reliable source, Apple Germany had ordered only 75,000 iPads. Against all their predictions, they got 250,000 orders.

Could this be a sign of the state of worldwide demand? If it is, we will probably learn about it in a press release next week.
