Comment Table SALES are down, not tablet USE (Score 0) 328
Let's not fuck around here, the tablet market is the iPad market. And Apple is a victim of its own success; the iPad is a device that people use without replacing for a lot longer than anyone predicted, certainly nothing like the 18-month phone cycle. I'm still using a "The New iPad" (3rd-gen) purchased in early 2012 and it's still awesome. I've purchased 2 new phones and 2 new desktop computers in that time, but the almost 3-year-old iPad just keeps on keeping on.
