CES Day 2: the day the tablets took over - Chicago Sun-Times
CES Day 2: the day the tablets took over - Chicago Sun-Times: “What lessons did tablet manufacturers learn from the beatings they received in 2010 and 2011? Mostly that they can’t compete with Apple by selling a slightly-inferior tablet for the same price as the iPad.
“Well, then let’s sell a vastly inferior tablet for lots less,” many companies concluded, and the air around the CES floor is ponged with the offgassing, both literal and figurative, of the race to the bottom of the tablet market.
That’s a shame. When someone buys an iPad, Apple wins a customer for life. When someone buys a $299 10-inch Android tablet …Apple also wins a customer for life.”
