iPad wait times fall, drop in market share predicted

Apple’s U.S. online store is now quoting wait times of one to three days for all models of the iPad, down from three to five days. The reduction in shipment wait times represents the second such drop in less than a week, as the wait dropped from seven to ten days to three to five days last Thursday, August 19. While wait times for the device continue to drop, UDN reports (Translated Link) that Acer Chairman JT Wang believes Apple’s share of the tablet PC market will drop from the nearly 100% share it currently enjoys to 20% – 30% due to competition from “open camp” competitors.
