Jan 30, 2010: Close to 10 million mobile computers expected to be sold in 2010

A recent market forecast by IT association Bitkom indicates that unit sales of mobile computers in Germany might reach the number of 10 million this year, thereby marking an all-time high. This would correspond to a unit growth for netbooks, laptops, and tablet PCs of approximately 11 per cent.  Sales could reach 4.9 billion euro, up 2 per cent. Currently, more than one third of mobile computers are netbooks, meeting the need of consumers to connect to the internet on the go, which is considered the major driver in the market.


 

Jan 18, 2010: Internet used intensively for making buying decisions

A recent study by market research company TNS revealed that German consumers make intensive use of the internet in their decision-making process as for which products to buy. For instance, 70 percent of internet users use the internet as a research tool before buying books, CDs, or DVDs either online or offline. In the consumer electronics segment, this is true for 66 percent. When it comes to planning holidays or other recreational activity, more than half (56 percent) use the internet research prior to purchasing. In terms of fashion, German internet users are a bit more reserved, but the 41 percent doing research still top their European peers (34 percent average).
