iPad Activations on AT&T Increased More than 200% Compared with Last Year’s iPad Launch

AT&T has released an official statement, which shows that during the opening weekend the number of iPad Air activations increased more than 200% compared with 2012 iPad launch.

According to the company’s official report,

iPad activations on AT&T increased more than 200% over the past three days compared to last year’s launch weekend, driven by consumer excitement around the new iPad Air and the popularity of AT&T Mobile Share, which lets customers add an iPad to their existing data plan for just $10 a month.  We also saw strong demand for AT&T Next, which offers customers an iPad for $0 down on the nation’s fastest and most reliable 4G LTE network.

Apple hasn’t yet released first weekend sales numbers; nevertheless, the company is expected to share these figures with reporters and ordinary users soon. All I can say now is that the iPad Air with Retina display is a very popular device among the customers.
