<description>&#60;img align='left' src='http://photos.macnn.com/news/1004/ipad-photo3.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' /><![CDATA[Apple could sell as many as 7.1 million iPads in 2010 alone, iSuppli estimated today.  Analysts believed that a strong wave of early adopters and those simply drawn to a tablet design should be enough to push millions of iPads each quarter this year.
