Report: Global Tablet Sales to Pass 80 Million in 2012

The tablet computer category is rapidly going from nonexistent to ubiquitous.

Global sales of computer tablet devices like the iPad will exceed 80 million by 2012, according to a new report from eMarketer. The researcher predicts that after 15.7 million tablet devices are purchased in 2010, in just two years sales will balloon by 418 percent to 81.3 million units worldwide.

Not surprising, it will be Apple’s iPad that will be driving that phenomenal growth, expects eMarketer.
