How are the iPad sales?

So now that the reports are ready, how did everyone do? I am VERY disappointed with only 2 sales, and I was in the top 100 for about 12 hours, I was just in the upper 60's. Let's be real, we got screwed with the App store, and there was almost no point in being ready for launch. So how bad/good did anyone else do?

    I don't think many people who own an iPad would buy tons of apps strait away on the first day and I suppose as iPads spread across the world sales will increase.

    Frustrating but people really only saw the featured apps.
    I like 99% sure that will change within a week or so

    It will be good still

    Im pretty frustrated but, not so much at the sales aspect since it will work out but at the fact I could have slept last week.

    All games e except already known or featured dropped off the OVERALL top 100

    Even if its 3 weeks we should all pick up where we left off

    When they add categories your game could for example, pop right up at # 17 in adventure.

    Once the catagories show up i am gonna update and hit hard with lite versions

    I have thought about pulling my apps for now but the more i think about it We all could still have a good position in a catagory!!!!

    Yes very true, well lets hope it's soon! I refuse to give up on my games, I'll be ready for it! Haha sleep last week would have been nice!

    I have a lot of upgrades to do now that I don't have to rush to get it ready!

    Bummer the apps were literally impossible to find. I am disappointed apple did not do it right. We all had a lot of great games for launch and no one got to see them.

    Of course the creme rises to the top, but I feel like we were not even in the container!!!!

    I plan to keep making stuff better. I would love some more sales.

    Yea, apple screwed us all over, (except for the big devs of course), but when categories comes out we'll be ready:) I'm going to update soon and as soon as categories comes out, I'm dropping all my promos and then updating again:)

    I got 1 sale ;/ I bet lots of people thought the only iPad games were the featured ones:(

    Just be ready our time will come:)

    If you want to see how your ipad game is doing in it's category check out this site... www.appannie.com
    It looks like the ipad stats are somewhat delayed as of now, but it's still really cool. It has top 500 stats for everything and other cool info. You can see sales info for any app on itunes also. Check out your iphone games on it. You don't have to sign up, just click the store stats tab at the top :)

    I just read this article about why people bought iPads and I was shocked to see that only 2% of people bought it for games out of about 4000 people.
    The mostly popular is web surfing.

    Free ABC Songs so far has been downloaded 195 times, but it's a free iPad app.
