Just saw this article and thought it was worth sharing. Great news for the future of the game and for Blizzard of course.

3.3 million copies of Cata sold in the first 24 hours.
Probably doesn't include pre-orders, as I'm sure more than 25% of the player base picked it up (or pre-ordered) on the first day.
