Q2 Report Shows Apple iPad Sales Dip
During the second quarter, Apple sold 14.6 million iPads, whereas Wall Street analysts were expecting the company to sell 18 million. The CEO at Apple, Tim Cook, discussed the competition, following the release of results.
Commenting on whether some of the decline was due to competition from other tablet vendors, Cooks cited data from an online advertising network, Chitika, which shows that in June, iPads accounted for 84.3 percent of Web traffic from tablets in the U.S. and Canada.
