Cynopsis: DIGITAL 04/05/10 Good morning, it’s Monday, April 5, 2010, and this is your first early morning digital briefing. The release of the WiFi-only iPad created an expected furor at Apple stores and Best Buy outlets on Saturday, with demand exceeding some expectations. Often quoted Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster estimated first-day opening sales at between 600,000 to 700,000 units – more than double his initial estimates. (There still seems to be iPads available if you resisted the urge, however – a call to a few local stores on Sunday afternoon revealed plenty of stock left.) The iPad section of the accompanying App Store opened its (digital) doors with more than 2,300 apps. ~ MULTIPLATFORM CONTENT NEWS ~
