iPad owners that bought the device 2 months after it has been launched are using the iPad more tha 18 hours per week.For a third of them the amount of hours spent using the device is increasing.This might be the first sign that the pc era will eventually come to an end, with devices like the iPad replacing the old bulky pc's and laptops.

According to an online pool started by the NPD consumer research group, the happiest iPad users are people that have bought the device very early after it has been launched.A percent of %80 of the people that bought the iPad soon after the long waited launch in April are very satisfied with it, compared to only %65 of users that bought it earlier according to the study. Most of the Apple iPad owners and customers use it to watch movies online, watch youtube videos or online TV.
