Hold On, Is The iPad Really Impacting Notebook Sales?

Last Friday I wrote a post based on information widely published on several other blogs that Best Buy was seeing the iPad having a signficant impact on notebook computer sales. The information was based on a Wall Street Journal article in which Brian Dunn, CEO of Best Buy, said he was misquoted and what he meant was grossly exaggerated. MSNBC has a follow up article that cites information provided by NPD that claims iPad sales are not the reason for lower notebook sales, rather it has to do with consumer reaction to lack of price deals on notebook computers.
