Apple said today iPod shipments dropped to 5.29 million in the three months ended in June from 5.31 million in the second, according to a Bloomberg News survey of eight analysts. Sales of the iPod, which generated almost one third of Apple's .24 billion in revenue, are up sixfold from 860,000 a year earlier.

Which one is right? Could someone please tell me?

I'm sorry now for telling you off - Apparently we have conflicting news sources.

You're referring to a posting done before Apple Made its announcement. Consensus opinion was that they would report slowing unit sales. Obviously, that was not the case. Bloomberg site now has the correct data.
