Do you live on your iPad or tablet? Can you remember a time when you didn’t immediately reach for it first thing in the morning or last thing at night just to check the latest news, weather report, movie review, or Facebook? Be honest! This is typical behaviour for many of us and we’re not alone. Recent statistics about tablets are very interesting.
