Apple has announced its fiscal Q4 results for 2010, including sales of 14.1 million iPhones - up 91% from the same quarter last year.
The company also shifted 4.19 million iPads during the quarter, and 9.05 million iPods, although Apple didn't say how many of those were app-capable iPod touches.
What is clear is the sheer lucrativeness of Apple's iOS business. The company generated record revenues of $20.34 billion during the quarter, up from $12.21 billion in its Q4 last year.
Apple's quarterly net profit was $4.31 billion. up from $2.53 billion a year ago.
"We are blown away to report over $20 billion in revenue and over $4 billion in after-tax earnings—both all-time records for Apple," said CEO Steve Jobs, in a statement.

"iPhone sales of 14.1 million were up 91 percent year-over-year, handily beating the 12.1 million phones RIM sold in their most recent quarter. We still have a few surprises left for the remainder of this calendar year."
However, Jobs had a lot more to say about RIM, not to mention Android, in the subsequent earnings call with analysts.
