The company said it sold 10.6 million iPods during the quarter, up 1% from the previous second quarter. Mac sales were up 51% with 2.29 million computers shipped.
The company said it sold 1.7 million iPhones during the quarter and reiterated that it expects to reach its goal of selling 10 million by year-end.
