Earlier today, while Tim Cook was introducing the new greatest gadget ever, he got a little rowdy. Speaking about internet usage, he claimed that iPads account for “92% of tablet traffic.” Cook surmised that it was because nobody actually uses Android tablets:

“I don’t know what these other tablets are doing. They must be in warehouses or store shelves or maybe in people’s bottom drawer.”
That’s more than a little smug. I know plenty a couple of people who use Android tablets every day! And more often than not, among my friends, they’re using a Nook Color. So it’s a two-year-old device that uses Barnes & Noble’s proprietary Android skin. So what? It still does almost everything you want a tablet to do—display books, play movies, and navigate to Facebook. Want more? It’s pretty easy to install the Google Play app store. Plus, a pre-owned Nook Color is $70 right now at Cowboom. Pick one up, and show Tim Cook that you don’t need a shiny new “5” to join the post-PC world. [Cowboom]
