An important milestone revealed by Apple to Jim Dalrymple.

Apple doesn’t usually share global iPod touch sales, but the company did detail sales numbers once: by March 2011, Apple had sold 60 million touch units. The iPod touch was first released on September 14, 2007; assuming Apple reached the 100 million milestone today, that would make for an average of 47,961 iPod touch units sold every day since launch.
