Do Android tablet users browse the web less than iPad users?

Yes, kind of hard to browse when shipped Android tablets are sitting in warehouses or store stockrooms, unsold. Which is why Apple's figures of sold units is more honest.

BINGO!!

"Sold" or even better, "activated", is the only honest measure of actual sales.

But ultimately, the only way to also account for the units that got bought, then put on a shelf and not used much or at all because they don't do what the buyer wanted, is.... the web stats. Imperfect, sure, but they take ACTUAL USAGE OF THE DEVICE, not just "bought it and took it home".
