Galaxy Tab Duct Taped. iPad Wins 89% of Worldwide Tablet Web Traffic.

iPad WinsIf you’re looking into purchasing a Samsung Galaxy Tab,  you may want to think about the domination of the iPad.  I was thinking about getting a Tab,  but not regretting my decision.  The iPad has replaced my television set.

In the U.S., comScore finds that 53% of non-computer device traffic comes from Apple devices: 23.5% from iPhone, 21.8% from iPad, and 7.8% from iPod touch. Android follows in second place with over 36% of the market, nearly all from smartphones. comScore’s report finds an interestingly wide variation in traffic patterns among countries, with Canada seemingly leading the way in iOS adoption, where Apple’s platform is responsible for 83% of the non-computer device traffic.

iPad competitors, most of them based on Android, are continuing to flood the tablet market, but none have yet been able to break Apple’s stranglehold. Upcoming high-profile tablet entries include HP next week and Amazon reportedly within the next few months.

I support the growth of the Android OS,  but Apple maintains it’s convenience with solid applications.  Netflix in particular just recently hit the Android Market.  Perks between the user interfaces are an individual choice,  however a complete mobile lifestyle goes to the iPad.

Put an Android product in my hands for a week, and maybe you’ll convert me.  That’s a challenge.  Curious to see if it gets answered.
