Apple gets 95% stake in the market for Tablet

Competition in the market is bounded quickly as handset vendors and PCmanufacturers are entering the new category of devices.


According to research firm Strategy Analytics, Apple reached a 95% share of the tablet computer market with its iPads in the July-September quarter.

However, competition in the market is bounded quickly as handset vendors and PCmanufacturers are entering the new category of devices, located halfway between the traditional personal computers and smart phones, following the success of theiPad Apple, which began shipping in April.

The total market grew to 4.4 million tablets in the September quarter from 3.5 millionthe previous period, according to research firm.

"War of the tablets is ongoing. Apple has pushed rapidly its famous brand, a strongretail presence and an easy to use for the development of the segment of the tablets in a multimillion-dollar global business," said analyst Neil Mawston SA .
