According to Meraki, a cloud service provider, Apple’s iPad accounts for an explosive increase in percentage of the browser market. According to their new report, iPad users consumes 400% more Wi-Fi data on a monthly basis than the average iPhone, iPod or Android portable device.
This report prepared by Meraki, took account of data collected from the anonymously surveyed 100,000+ devices accessing public, educational and general use Wi-Fi networks in the U.S. It analyzed bandwidth usage and operating system popularity between 2010 and 2011 to reveal the huge gap between the Wi-Fi data usage of iPads and other mobile devices.

The latest Nielsen survey is back. This time is about what children want this holiday. No wonder iPad tops their wish list.
31% of U.S. children ages 6 to 12 want an iPad over any other electronic device in the next six months, followed by a computer (29%) and iPod touch (29%).
This stats tell that on overall U.S. market share, Android is the single fastest-growing mobile platform and Apple's iOS shows an ever-so-slight decline.
Other competitors like BlackBerry and Windows Mobile, show sharp declines over the past quarter. Still, BlackBerry is the top mobile OS is on top of the hill with around 30 percent of the total market share.
AppleInsider reports:
Investment research firm Piper Jaffray recently completed its 20th bi-annual teen survey, a national study which polls around 6,000 students around the country about their interest and buying patterns in mobile phones, portable media players and online music services.
According to the results of that survey, the percentage of teens that own an iPhone currently sits at 14%, which is essentially unchanged from the same survey conducted last year. However, interest in purchasing an iPhone in the next 6 months rose to an all-time high of 33%.

"we believe could still be conservative," according to Maynard Um, an analyst at the UBS Investment Research.
There is no evidence that iPad purchases are affecting Mac sales, but the popular tablet has been "adversely impacting" PC sales, specifically notebook PCs, Um wrote, prompting many of them to launch iPad competitors. There will not likely be any "viable threats" to the iPad "for some time," however.
"We believe that a majority of this impact is occurring on the lower end of PC sales as the iPad is priced close enough to this range that it becomes attractive to consumers looking to make purchases within this segment," he wrote.
There are billion-plus phones sold per year. The number of active subscriptions, which is greater than half of the human population.The hundreds of thousands of apps for apple and android which is keeping the user hook to them.
Based on their respective numbers, the companies below represent the biggest OS vendors in both the smartphone and desktop space on earth. What's interesting is that, with the explosion of iOS devices and Android over the past year and the relative stagnation of the desktop market, mobile OS shipments are approaching that of desktop OSes. In fact, smartphones may be surpassing desktop OS shipments right now. I'm going to attempt to prove that below.
Android have advantage because its open source, free for and Mobile make to put on.As more and more Android devices launch across manufacturers and carriers, it continues to gain marketshare in the US and around the world
where as Apple, who is the only manufacturer of iOS devices and in the US, offers its device only on AT&T. So this survey might be disturbing apple too much.
The survey of 20,000 people conducted by US consumer research firm MyType also claimed that they are selfish and unkind.
MyType spokesman Tim Koelkebeck gave his unflattering appraisal of iPad owners on the company's blog after the firm released the results of the survey online.
And Koelkebeck said that 96 per cent of iPad's critics don't own an iPad, but are generally independent-minded young people who "shun conformity".
Survey finds that the 73% of iPhone users are very satisfied with AT&T's service. This reports compares how non-iPhone users feet about the AT&T, and even to how non-iPhone users feel about other wireless providers.
The satisfaction rate of AT&T subscribers as a whole is 68%, and only 69% of smartphone users say they are satisfied with their mobile provider, Yankee Group found.
The results of this poll might made AT&T to celebrate upon since it was under fire in the media and on the internet about its service-related issues with the iPhone.
iOS to Android OS comparison, Apple has the lead by a significant margin; iOS traffic accounted for around 55% of mobile OS activity in a recent snapshot, whereas Android devices ran closer to 18% of the total.
To get an idea of OS versions, Chitika captured data on 9,020,135 devices running an iOS and 7,712,820 devices running some version of Android.
Where iPhone owners show a distinct advantage is in the ability to quickly upgrade en masse to the latest distribution of the OS. Almost half (49.9%) of all iPhone owners are now running iOS 4, which was just released one month ago.
Apple remains the leader amongst both smartphones and connected devices. Millennial’s report finds that Apple actually made a 4% month-over-month gain in terms of device manufacturer marketshare in the U.S., giving Apple nearly 30% of all impressions.
