Re: $150 million in online sales.

A MacWeek report makes reference to the $150 million number.
Addressing questions about the effect of Apple's online store on its traditional third-party retailers, Mandich said there is a complementary strategy behind the Internet service. The online store accrued sales of about $150 million, he said, but "that's probably going to be less than 10 percent of our overall sales.

This is rather strange considering in Dec I had thought that the $12 mil/month figure might be only for actual orders placed through the internet rather than for the entire AppleStore (1-800 orders included).

When I emailed Katie Cotton to clarify the PR she said the the $12 million revenue was for the entire AppleStore. But now it appears that we've got a total sales of $150 million all of a sudden?

Austin American-Statesmen also made reference to the $150 million figure a few days ago which we laughed at as a typo. Who do we believe?
