Another day, another set of figures that relate to the battle for supremacy between netbooks and tablet computers.
This time, new results from IDC show that shipments of netbooks to western Europe dropped by 25 per cent in the last quarter, due to the expansion of the tablet market, led by the iPad.
Eszter Morvay from the research firm remarks that "mini notebooks had started to slow down in Q1, but increasing noise and announcements around media tablets have contributed to accelerating the trend, and have affected notebook renewal intentions from a share of wallet standpoint."
As we revealed earlier in the month, ABI Research predict that netbook sales are expected to hit 58 million by the end of the year, whilst iPads alone look set to sell 20 million units in 2011.
