OmniGroup Makes $175,000 on OmniGraffle for iPad in 32 Days

From the Omni blog:

“The Omni Group today announced that it sold its five thousandth OmniGraffle for iPad on Wednesday, just 32 days after its introduction on April 3.

“We strongly believe in the iPad’s potential as a productivity tool, and it’s a fantastic endorsement of the product category that OmniGraffle is still on the App Store’s top grossing list a month after its release,” says Ken Case, founder and CEO of the Omni Group. “People are clearly interested in using the iPad for more than media and entertainment. We are thrilled and grateful, and we hope to keep pleasing our customers as we continue in our iPad development efforts.”

You do the math. What was the problem with expensive apps not selling, again?

If you still don’t get it, iPad users want to be productive. And Omnigraffle is just a great app.
