The iPad held 73% of the tablet market last year, most of which came from market entrants who entered solely for the iPad. I don't know what by metric you're judging 'lust' (hopefully it's not just your desire), but its hard to imagine a more impressive performance.

- pooriaazimi 14y agoTwo posts above: > Moreover how big is that market? They sold 44 million in three quarters, and they have (at least) 73% market share. So, a total of 80 million in 2012. Probably 50% more in 2013.
