Tablet Shipments Exceeding Forecasts

IDC says that tablet shipments in Europe, the Middle East and Africa were close to 4.4 million units in the second quarter of 2011, about 700,000 more than the researchers had originally forecast.

That translates to a growth of nearly 400 percent over the same quarter last year, and 82 percent more than the first quarter of 2011.

Overall, the region is on track for shipments of 22 million for the full year. Juniper, which has today released worldwide figures, predicts that tablet shipments will reach 253 million by 2016—the figure for 2011 it says will be 55.2 million units. Tablet Shipments Exceeding Forecasts
