Apple iPad Catching Up On Android In OS Market

Latest figures published by Netmarketshare show that the the operating system market share of the Apple iPad has jumped from 0.03 to 0.08 percent for the month of May 2010.

However, a detailed analysis of the last three days of May showed that the iPad peaked at 0.17 percent of the global OS market share, which would put well ahead of the iPod Touch (or Android) and just behind Symbian.

The iPad was released in the UK as well as in eight other countries last Friday which might explain the sudden peak recorded during the long bank holiday weekend.

Apple’s so-called “Magical” device will be released in nine other countries in July bringing the total number of territories where the free iPad has been rolled out to 19.

Combined altogether, the iPhone, the iPod Touch and the iPad reach 0.8 percent which would put Apple’s mobile platforms just behind Java ME and more than all the other operating systems (including Symbian & Android) combined.

NetMarketshare gets its data from browsers of site visitors from a network of websites that count approximately 160 million visitors per month.

Windows operating system still leads the pack but has already lost 1.8 percent since July 2009 but still commands 91.28 percent of the market.

ITProPortal has also launched a contest inviting prospective and current iPad owners to get up to £500 worth of free apple iPad accessories (including iPad Apps and Apple iTunes Credit) simply by submitting the list of accessories they’d like to have. Simples!!

As hundreds filled the streets all over the globe to queue for a apple iPad, many even spending the night just to grab the latest tablet from apple. Some are naming it a fashion accessory whilst others are hailing it as a breakthrough in modern living but overall the impact in sales is evident as apple sell under 2 million units on the worldwide release date.

Time will only tell what the future holds for the iPad but one thing is evident and that it’s going to be with us for a very long time as many folk consider the ipad to be a necessity to the household or to basic tasks in the working environment. Reports are now springing up left right and center of other companies now in development of a new tablet based range to try and get a foot in the portable tablet market.

Unfortunate people have resorted to online websites such as http://www.simplyfreeipad.com to claim a free iPad, all new members that sign up to the site are given a iPad tablet absolutely free of charge, just for completing a simple offer. Stocks are running drastically low everywhere and one thing keeps bugging me and that’s apple are happy enough to set the price of this high end device. But they are not so eager to provide a decent number of tablets to meet the demand ???

Apple iPad fans queue for iPad's UK launch

Several hundred customers queued outside of Apple’s leading shop in Regent Street for the iPad tablet, which sold more than one million units in its first 28 days of availability in the USA.

Shorter queues were also seen at other Apple Shops, including an overnight queue at the Westfield shopping centre in the London. In the UK, Apple stores opened an hour early  to sell the Apple  iPad. Currys and PC World are also stocking the device at 139 outlets across the UK.

The iPad was initially planned to launch in the UK in late March, but the date was  pushed back into late April, then late May, due to shortages in the US. Online sales in the UK, which were also planned for Friday, have been pushed back to 7 June.

At the Westfield store, the first in the queue was a woman who had sent her son to wait overnight, a security manager for the shopping centre told ZDNet UK. The mother then took his place at 7:45am, just before the shop opened.

Scenes like these across the Uk were reported overnight! and it’s turned into an apple frenzy with news following that Apple have taken over microsoft on the company value table.

Free iPad | Apple to open its 27 UK stores early on Friday in anticipation of iPad Launch

The iPad tablet became an overnight success following its US launch in April, and with UK sales scheduled to begin in less than 48 hours, gadget lovers are expected to queue through the night in order to ensure they get their hands on what could be limited stock.

The iPad has surprised many people across the US and as a result showed a very high demand for the iPad tablet and many tech officials  have stated that this trend will be around for some time to come.

Customers who placed a pre-order for the device at the start of the month have been guaranteed a Friday delivery, but Apple’s online store now states that any new orders possibly won’t be fulfilled until late next month. In an bid to expand the reach of its high-profile launch, Apple is also believed to have teamed up with high-street electronics giant DSG International. According to reports, DSGI’s PC World and Currys stores will be offering the iPad for sale from Friday morning as part of an exclusive 60-day deal.

Many Uk stores will be selling the iPad on Friday but have yet to be confirmed by Apple. Having sold one million iPads in 28 days in the US, Apple will be hoping for a repeat success with its UK consumers on this side of the ocean.

3 Network Announced Uk iPad tariff – Undercutting The Competition

Mobile phone operator Three has become the latest in the UK to add its tarif into the mixing bowl with iPad monthly price plans, but unlike its rivals is set to offer its customers contract free devices.

The operator’s charges will be £7.50 a month for 1GB and £15 for 10GB – prices which easily undercut those of most of its rivals. Vodafone and O2 are both going to charge £10 for a 1GB data plan, while Orange’s 10GB package is £25, this is a massive step from 3 who is one of the Uk’s smallets networks but it hasn’t stopped them this time!

“Three is pleased to offer competitive data plans for iPad with Wi-Fi + 3G in the UK,” said Marc Allera, sales and marketing director at 3.

“Our network, the largest in the country, has been optimised for the mobile internet, ensuring our customers enjoy the very best mobile performance on iPad.”

Presumably the firm is pretty confident that users are going to quickly grow attached to their iPads mirroring the profit effects the iPad is currently serving in the Us today.

Three will be offering customers the plans from Friday, and will be the main competitor of tariff plans for the ipad for some time after the launch so stay tuned for more free ipad updates asap.

The 'iPad mini' – Dell Streak – O2 UK Launch Date

The smaller sized device, which boasts a 5 inch touchscreen, aims to connect the gap in between high-end smartphones and full-sized tablets for people who want more portability.

While it is primarily designed as a data device, the Streak does one thing the iPhone doesn’t – it can also be used as a phone.

The Streak also has a 5 megapixel autofocus camera with a dual LED flash.

While the current version of Android is 2.1, O2 say that the device will get an upgrade to the upcoming 2.2 later this year – which will bring the Flash support that the iPad is missing.

Running the latest version of Google’s Android OS, and with a 1GHZ Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, 3G, WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity, and space for microSD card memory expansion up to 32GB, the Streak is equal to the specs of most high-end smartphones currently available in the tech market.

The Streak will be available only on O2 in ‘early June’, although an exact date has not been announced. Price and tariff details will also be confirmed by O2 in the comming weeks.
