    As someone else said - this recession is really hurting iPad sales....



    I genuinely do think iPads are stopping people buying new pcs, it certainly stopped us buying a new laptop for instance, and even as my wife said a few days ago, the iPad has given her laptop at least another 2 years before it gets retired.



    Ironically, the replacement for her laptop will be a Mac.
