Just seemed to me like you're going around dismissing continents, redefining the product category when faced with opposing evidence. Perhaps in 2010 iPad was the only game in town but Android tablets have shot up since then. I've seen it with my own eyes and ears, but yes, when I googled for data I saw that I am not wrong.

Sorry, the data you quoted is absolutely wrong. It doesn't distinguish between low cost android video players and iPads. If you want to make a point about android being used widely, that's fine, but if you want to make a point about iPads being affected by commoditization, the data doesn't support that.

More like you don't like some of the brands and models because they come from a continent you don't like, and you are using this to dismiss the whole argument.

Nope. Stop trying to impute racism. The facts are that Android video players are hugely popular in Asia, but these aren't iPad competitors.
