("Netbook sales were meteoric in 2009, jumping eightfold in the United
States, to 7.5 million devices, and tripling worldwide to 34 million. Yet
the torrid growth stalled last year")
My comment: If you are busy, just take a look at the graphic. The report
says, "Sales of netbooks * * * were slowing even before the iPad went on
sale in April." But Mr Steve Jobs heralded iPad in January 2010, before it
was on sale the following April. There had been intense speculation several
months prior to the January debut. One interpretation of netbook sale data
is that consumers anticipated the arrival of iPad and decided to wait. | l*****f 发帖数: 2198 | |
