Was in Red Rock Coffee in Mountain View last week and (guestimating) saw about 60% laptops (mostly Mac) and 40% tablets upstairs. Didn't count who was on phones (including me). Most of my travels are in Canada however, and in Vancouver , Calgary, or Toronto the ratio is inverted - more iPads than laptops. Business meetings too - lots of iPads. I know my 5 year old prefers our iPad to any other device or toy - even the big screen projector. This is similar with other parents in our circles where iPad grounding is one of the more effective forms of discipline. These are all anecdotes and in the grand scheme mean little, just a counter example to the "collecting dust" theory. They're also still outselling all Macs by 3x though it used to be 5x. So something is happening to iPad purchase trends but it's not clear why.
