Hate all you want but that's a huge gap and it'll probably grow with apple possibly releasing a iPad mini!

That's fine, they're ignorant! Android lovers and thumbing down is hilarious. All it means is that i'm right. Unlike y'all, I carry an ios device and android and have no loyalty to either.

Tre-Nitty, I am with you. I have an iPad 1 and Galaxy Note. Its the best of both worlds. iOS is good on the iPad but restricted to use on a phone.

You see what i did say in that other thread, did you? Phonearena, please proof your "facts".

Ah, yeah i own an Galaxy Note and today i will buy my iPad. High five, best of two worlds.

So people prefer touch screen digital photoframes with games over real tablets, how is it Google's fault people are dumb?

How is the iPad not a real tablet?

Could be, but the mini might take sales away from the full sized iPad. Have to wait and see.

Yea....68% is nice. Very nice

Wasnt it higher than that one time? Alot higher? Just throwing some perspective out there...

It was. It just a matter of time before we see Android on the top of that list. It's a numbers game. Look and the iPhone vs Android sales. It's not even fair. One phone vs an OS, come on. In time and not much longer Android will be on top the tablet market share. It's a numers game. You don't think so? Ok bet you were on of those people that thought Apple would dominate the market share of smartphones. Well that wasn't the case. Love or hate Apple, it has nothing to do with it. Again it is a numbers game.

Interesting!! Maybe that is why they are suddenly(well not suddenly) lumping it in with the pc. Getting close to a monopoly market share like Windows. That would be interesting indeed.
