30% of people surveyed have more than one iPad in their home



41% of users are spending 2-5 hours per day with the iPad



Two thirds of people say they have increased their iPad usage since first getting it. Looks like people aren't getting bored.



More people consider it a primary computer now than when we last ran the survey



The iPad is a web surfing machine first and foremost



Yet, people do an equal amount of web browsing on laptops as they do on iPads



The iPad is truly the "PC" now, with people spending most of their time using it for "personal computing"



29% of people have downloaded over 50 apps



People are paying for a fair amount of apps per device



People ignore a lot of the apps they download



The web browser is still the best way to get news



Fewer people are reading books on their iPad in this survey



iBooks became much more popular



More people bought MacBook Airs



But, the MacBook Air has little affect on iPad usage



iPads and Macbook Airs are not either/or purchases



But, if it were, people would choose the iPad



About half the respondents have a 3G iPad



AT&T is the more popular option. Of course, for iPad 1 owners, it was the only option, really. 



People opted for their phone carrier*
*Some people complained that this question was unfair because, when they bought it they had no choice.



Only half of the people with 3G iPads actually use the data plan on a monthly basis



Almost nobody thought about Android



The Xoom was the only tablet that was even a little bit interesting



The non-Android tablets are non-starters
