Tablet “Tabvertising”• Tablet ownership is growing

significantly,1 in 5 adults owns a tablet or eReader, and that number is growing fast.

• Tablets are still classified as a “lean

begin to replace traditional computers. • Tablets have different and more

expansive capabilities than smart phones, but advertisers are still trying to figure

out how to use these.
