This is not something the iPad should be proud of.
A more kooky badly run state you will never find, and I’ve lived here all my life.
So keep this to yourselves, otherwise the rest of the world will wonder what is so wrong with the iPad that California likes it?
I tried to get NC on the list but Apple would only let me buy 2.
@ theloniousMac
Don’t worry. People that don’t actually live in California don’t hate it.
C1
ouch! At least MN is getting bluer.
Alaska: 0.37%. Sarah Palin bought one.
pretty useless stat. it would be a LOT more informative if it was per capita. as a percent of computer sales it might be even better. but seeing as California has around twice the population of any other state, knowing Apple sold teach as many ipads here doesn’t tell me a whole lot.
(Oops… looks like my ipad’s dictionary doesn’t autocorrect the plural or possessive forms of “iPad” but it does for iPhones (tho not iphone’s)… how about some consistency guys?)
Per capita would tell you more about how widely it is adopted in a given state.
@ Rike
Careful with that kind of talk around here. >.<
I guess we people from the Intermountain West need to get on the ball. My Idaho is only slightly better than Wyoming. Might help if we had an Apple Store and didn’t have to drive all the way to Utah!
Hmmm…blue states dominate the top-10. I guess the demographics showing libs have less money than cons is not quite right.
One wonders if the reason Washington state is so high on the list is that Redmond needed a bunch for its scribes to, er, facilitate their facsimile function…
@ KenC
Careful. That just means blue states are population centers, which we already knew.
@ Hm…
FWIW, I have not yet spotted one iPad in the wild, aside from those going out the Apple Store’s front door.
what a useless way to present data. now i have to divide the numbers by state population to find out something useful. i hope these guys don’t make their living analyzing things.
An English friend of mine, working in the States, has been TEASING me with his iPad messages, the bugger. Knowing I can’t get my own one till late May.

He’s using it a LOT because he can’t get back here for another 9 days because of the volcano problem.
He tells me that as soon as he saw it, he had to HAVE IT. (I think he went into the store for something entirely different, not an iPad…)
I will have my revenge.. He has a Wifi one and I will have the top of the range
It’s seems obvious that the state with the largest population (by a significant margin over #2) would have the highest iPad unit numbers. Followed by New York, Texas, Florida, and Illinois. What a surprise! Those are the top five states by population.
Ding ding ding
Fredo for the prize.
Useless stat.
In other news, California has led the country in car adoption, closely followed by NY, TX, and FL.
Boo MDN.
It makes sense considering CA has 1/8 of the US population.
Any relationship in how Many best buys and apple stores per state. Here in pr we have 4 best buys and one apple authorize dealer called modernica since day one all ipads are sold out. I beta state like California have more tahn 100 best buys of course they are going to be num. One but have they sell all their stock. ? I think so but is unfare ti compare states like that
In parenthesis, I have added the percent of US population for each state (per Wikipedia.org)
1. California – 19.12% (11.95%)
2. New York – 8.30% (6.31%)
3. Texas – 8.00% (7.81%)
4. Florida – 5.88% (5.97%)
5. Illinois – 3.84% (4.20%)
6. New Jersey – 3.39% (2.84%)
7. Pennsylvania – 3.05% (4.06%)
8. Massachusetts – 3.05% (2.07%)
9. Georgia – 2.93% (3.12%)
10. Washington – 2.82% (2.11%)
Makes sense when you consider how many Apple stores are actually in each state. California and the other top states are obviously going to have more stores and therefore, more iPads sold. In North Carolina, there are only 4 stores, and iPads are sold out at at least one of them.
Using “Census Worker’s” data (not verified) here is a quick calculation of percent of iPad adoption per percent of population. (Each state’s adoption rate expressed as a multiple of nationwide adoption rate). CA still on top, though not by nearly as much. 4 of the 10 “top adopter” states (FL, GA, IL, PA) are actually below-average on a per capita basis.
California 1.600
Massachusetts 1.473
Washington 1.336
New York 1.315
New Jersey 1.194
Texas 1.024
Florida 0.985
Georgia 0.939
Illinois 0.914
Pennsylvania 0.751
Oh yeah.!.!.!.?
Let’s just do one for cowboy hat density.
I bet Texas is denser than all you loser Yankees!!!!
Hahahaha!
….wait
I thought California was an other country, they act like it and their govinator talks funny, plus LA speaks spanish.
