THERE are two types of tablet computers in the market today. Unfortunately both are equally unattractive, and even bizzare (odd). This was disclosed by Chief Operating Officer (COO) Tim Cook Apple. Tablets of the first kind, continued to Cook, is a tablet that uses the Windows operating system. "This type is generally large, heavy, and expensive. It has a low battery life, and need a stylus to access it. From our perspective, it is difficult to attract consumers," he said.The second type, said Cook, is a tablet with the Android operating system from various brands and appearing in various designs. However, continued Cook, the Android operating system is not currently designed for tablets. "Google itself is saying that the Android OS Gingerbread not for the tablets. As a result consumers get the tablet without any tablet experience. As a large smartphone, which we think odd," he said. "It's hard for me to understand if someone does a side-by-side with the iPad, while most people still will choose the iPad. They are no threat to us," he explained. But Cook and Apple's pride is justified. According to IDC report, in the third quarter of 2010 ago Apple earned 45 percent iPad tablet computer market. While the latest generation of Android tablets, which were introduced at CES 2011 earlier, has not been released. "I therefore can not comment. What is clear they lack in terms of specification, price, and time, so now they evaporate," he continued. Apple profit, as revealed by Cook, is the user experience of the iTunes, App Store, application developers who are loyal and massive ecosystem. "Therefore, we are very confident," he explained.
