"Surprise, surprise, surprise!"

TNT@... 28th Jun

I had no idea Android was doing so well in the tablet space. No wonder Apple hates it so much!

Okay Tech Republic and ZDNet

It looks like ZDNet and Tech Republic writers need to look at this graphic. It seems that Android is doing a bit better than they think. I am many other commenters need to Bookmark this page so that we can rub their noses in it until they quit claiming that Android tablets are all failures.

Odd...

curtis8@... 29th Jun

The two things I see in this is:
1) the cheapest Android, with the least features is kicking butt
2) no mention of Windows even though there have been windows tablets for some time. I myself own a ASUS B1-121 but there are others.

Not saying MS is popular, they may have so small a share that it was not worth mentioning, or maybe they define a tablet differently in the stats.

Interesting - rough parity now; and Fire is less than half of Androids

daboochmeister 29th Jun

To listen to many bloggers, you would think that the iPad represents WAY more than half of the tablets sold; and you would think the Kindle Fire represents way more than half of the Android tablets sold.
