Are you starting to see more tablets in your office? I’ve been seeing a steady stream of note pads being replaced by tablets. From iPads to Slates and Androids, the first question everyone seems to be asking is, “which app are you using to take notes?”

Below is an infographic from Online Marketing Trends. It illustrates the rapid adoption of tablets. From 16.1 million shipped in 2010, market researchers predict there will be 147.2 million tablets shipped in 2015. Currently iOS is leading the charge with about 61% of the market with Android in a distant second holding 30%. In 2012, we can expect to see that level out as Android and Microsoft start to whittle away Apple’s dominant position.

The usage breakdown is also very interesting. You can see the consumer is primarily using tablets for gaming; whereas, not surprisingly business users are more focused on browsing, email, and working remotely. Regarding popular apps, you can see Citrix is a leader as it enables users to log into their enterprise environments remotely and run Windows applications on their iPads. Although the user experience isn’t very smooth yet, vendors are starting to take notice and plan for ways to make their applications more mobile friendly.

Tablets are finding their way into the work place.
