Tablets Quickly Grabbing a Role in E-Commerce

Tablets quickly are establishing a role in e-commerce, passing smart phones after only a couple of years in existence. When tablets are used might have something to do with the growth. People often are "in transit" when using a smart phone, and more often are sitting on a couch when using a tablet. Also, tablets feature larger screens, and that means better display surfaces, better visuals and easier interaction than on a small screen.
