“Apple’s iPad still reigns supreme among tablets, but its grip
on the market is starting to loosen.“In the fourth quarter, Apple’s tablet captured 75.3 percent of
worldwide market share, easily besting Android-based devices’ 21.6
percent share, according to market-research firm Strategy
Analytics. However, those figures differ vastly from the third
quarter when Apple had 95.5 percent share and Android had just 2.3
percent.“For 2010 overall, iPad’s held 84.1 percent of the market, while
Android devices accounted for 13.1 percent.”
