The latest post on ‘ReadWrite’ is titled “How The iPad Stalled And Android Took Over The Tablet Market”.

Dan Rowinski says, “Between the first quarter and second of 2013, tablet shipments were down 9.7%, according to research firm IDC’s latest quarterly tablet tracker.That’s one of the first times since the launch of Apple’s iPad in 2010 that tablet sales declined from one quarter to the next.

Oddly enough, Apple itself is primarily to blame. Sales of the iPad declined in Q2 2013 to 14.6 million, down from 19.5 million in Q1 and down from 17 million in Q2 2012. You could argue that an aging lineup was to blame, although the latest iPad and the iPad mini both debuted last October, just nine months before the end of the second quarter”.
