Expectations for the tablet market in 2011 are positive, but to put things in context tablets will still be niche devices, maybe 15 percent of smartphone sales. We’ll see more supply than demand in 2011, and probably some vicious price competition because Apple will remain the leader in style, features and shipments.

Santa Goes Mobile this Holiday Season
Holiday shopping reports show that sales are going mobile like never before. When comparing the number of mobile transactions between 2009 and 2010, we find there is a rapid increase in shopping from mobile devices. Retail is just one of many markets being revolutionized by mobile applications.
PayPal reported a 300 percent increase in online sales this holiday season compared to 2009, and a 27 percent increase in mobile transactions on Black Friday alone. Total mobile sales are expected to double to $3.4 billion from $1.4 billion in 2009. There is still time for more mobile shopping before Christmas that will make these numbers even more impressive.
The continued popularity and record sales of iPhones and iPads, plus the explosive growth of Android powered devices this year has added fuel to the growth in mobile shopping.
