Based on the complete LACK of advertising for the product (that I've seen, anyway), they must have tripled a sales of 5 units, to 15 units...

As a follow-up to my previous post on this point, Gene Munster is predicting that Apple will sell 6.6 million Apple TVs in 2009:

"For the near term, Mr. Munster said Apple will sell some 6.6 million Apple TVs in calendar 2009, up from 2.2 million in calendar 2008. These projections are based mainly on a comment from Apple executives that the company had roughly a 3x growth in sales of the device during the Christmas quarter. A hardware rev of the product could add to those sales, he said."

Yep, more than 15...
