After Apple CEO Tim Cook hinted Monday morning about a "record weekend" for sales of the new iPad, Apple(s AAPL) this afternoon is confirming just how good of a weekend it was. Since the first iPads went on sale Friday morning, 3 million tablets have been sold, according to Apple.
That's the same number of iPads Apple sold in the first 80 days…
That says something when you can move that kind of volume for that price.
