While talking about the iPad’s success, Steve Jobs was happy to trash talk the competition, specifically those of Android makers.
Quoting Samsung VP Lee Young-hee,Jobs noted that the Galaxy Tab, the iPad’s most notable competition, only sold a small number of actual devices to end users.
As for the App Store, it’s currently got over 65,000 iPad-specific apps up for download. Android Honeycomb? Only 100.
Sure, it’s not a fair comparison: Honeycomb is barely out yet. Still, the message is clear: Apple is dominating.

One response to “Apple Trash Talks iPad Competition”
Apple has sold out a millions of products and even reaches beyond their expectations. But the issues with regards to the Android tablets that has only a hundred of their apps is not actually a big deal on it; as long as they are true to their customers and not to mention that the Android company also sold out a millions products. Phone users are now in confuse of what product to use because of its increasing demand in the society.
