Fearless News Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 81% of iPad owners have paid for an application compared to just 43% of those who owner other tablets, according to a recent Citigroup survey. iPad owners also download more applications, which is not surprising given the larger selection of tablet-formatted apps in the iTunes App Store. According to Citigroup, 63% of iPad owners have purchased 11 or more applications versus 37% of non-iPad owners.

Citigroup’s survey found that most people (67%) actually use their tablet for general web surfing most. 30% of the respondents said they used their iPad to watch movies and TV shows using Netflix, too. Citigroup’s survey was comprised of 1,800 respondents in the United States, China and the United Kingdom. Read View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
