IDC調高2012年及未來平板電腦銷售預測 科技博客TECHCRUNCH

????IDC預測，平板電腦銷量今年年底將達到1.223億臺，2013年為1.724億臺；安卓份額將增長，電子書閱讀器日漸式微。IDC之所以提高平板電腦銷售預測的另一個原因是，電子書閱讀器將節節敗退。IDC稱，亞馬遜公司（Amazon）和巴諾書店（B&N）出品的前光（front-lit）電子書閱讀器獲得了“一小部分對電子書閱讀器情有獨鐘的用戶”的青睞。但分析人士相信，絕大多數用戶會選擇多功能的平板電腦。IDC已將2012年電子書閱讀器的銷售預測調低至1,990萬臺，這個數字要比2011年2,770萬臺的出貨量低了不少。

IDC raises tablet forecast for 2012 and onward?[TECHCRUNCH]

????The forecast: 122.3 million by year-end, 172.4 million by 2013; Android gains, eReaders lose Another reason for IDC's raised tablet forecast comes at eReaders' expense. Front-lit eReaders from Amazon and B&N have captured the interest of "a subset of consumers who prefer an eReader," says IDC, but the analysts believe that the majority of buyers will go for multi-use tablets instead. IDC has dropped its eReader forecast down to 19.9 million units for 2012, which is lower than the 27.7 million units shipped in 2011.
