iPad demand still high

Three months after its debut, the iPad continues to sell extremely well, according to a study performed by America's Research Group (ARC). They surveyed 1,000 people and found that 8.4 percent said they already bought an iPad. Plus, another 6.1 percent said they intend to purchase one.

The good news for Apple is this: according to these numbers, the number of people who intend to buy is above 70 percent of the number that have already bought. In fact, ARC founder Britt Beemer called it "incredible demand."

More iPad news on the enterprise front: In a separate survey noted today by Apple 2.0/Fortune, ITIC and Sunbelt Software found that 23% of the 600 IT managers they contacted have iPads in hand or on order. They also noted that nearly 80% of the survey respondents expect to allow more users to deploy Macs as enterprise desktops in the next 12 months.

The iPad is arguably the best-selling consumer tablet to date. Apple sold 3 million units in 80 days. Analysts have shared their estimates for Q3 iPad sales, ranging from 2.5 million to 3.75 million. We're eager to hear the official number during Apple's July 20th financial conference call.
