Gadget
fans around the world are buying up tablet computers at an ever-increasing
rate, and Indian consumers are no exception.
Approximately
32,000,000 tablets have been sold worldwide to date. From October 2010 to June
2011, 8,000 were sold every day in India alone, with 46% of these sold by
Samsung, 21% by BlackBerry, 18% by Apple, with the rest of the numbers made up
by smaller tablet manufacturers. Computer Market Research (CMR) estimates that
Indian consumers will buy 85,000 tablet PCs in 2012, rising to 23.4 million in
2017 as sales are expect to double yearly.

a size and weight somewhere between laptops and smartphones, they provide the
ideal combination of portability and usability. Their larger size and
high-quality graphics makes them ideal for playing games, reading books and
news, and watching videos. As well as
consumers, they have also been extremely popular in the business world. Their
uses in the workplace include attorneys responding to
clients, medical professionals accessing health records during patient exams,
and managers approving employee requests. Tablet computers received an
immediately positive reception upon their release - the Apple iPod caused
pandemonium, with thousands of fans queuing up outside stores to purchase their
own.

computers' popularity has been aided in part by the rise in low cost tablets
like the Aakash, which makes tablets accessible to everyone - research shows
that tablets costing under 10,000 Rs are the most popular in India. Compared
with the smartphone BlackBerry Bold 9790, Datawind's Aakash seems
a very reasonable - it's priced at just 2,500 Rs for a device with the full
functionality of a tablet computer, compared with the BlackBerry Bold price of over 20,000 Rs.
