The launch was foreshadowed this morning when Apple's online store went down just after midnight, sometimes a signal of a new product announcement.

Enough to earn $5.5 billion in revenue. Still, the sales figures are a 19 percent drop in iPads sold and show a 22 percent drop in revenue from a just one year ago.
Apple joined the (Red) campaign to fight AIDS in 2006 with the launch of a red a special edition iPod nano. Since then, the company has raised over more than $120 million from the proceeds of (Red)-branded Apple products.
