Tablet Tracker U.S.

Apple’s launch of the iPad in January 2010 opened a new market alongside phones and traditional PCs, a market that exploded in 2011 with hundreds of new products from traditional phone vendors, PC vendors, and new market entrants.

It was relatively easy to track the market in 2010, but in 2012 there are over 250 different models on shelves at carriers, big box retailers, and major online outlets, and considerable churn as new products reach the market and prices are adjusted to compete. The Current Analysis Tablet Tracker helps you monitor and react to changes in this explosive consumer device category.
