One-Third of Americans Now Own Tablets

Tablet computers are no longer a niche market. More than one third of Americans own tablets such as the iPad, Samsung Galaxy or Kindle Fire, according to new Pew Internet research.

Pew also released a portrait of the demographics of tablet owners and found little statistically significant difference in tablet ownership when it comes to gender and race/ethnicity.
