IHS iSuppli: Netbooks Demise On The Horizon

HP's Mini Note netbook


El Segundo, Calif. — Few CE products have experienced the dramatic rise and equally impressive fall as the netbook.

IHS iSuppli is forecasting that only 3.9 million units will ship this year, down from 14.1 million in 2012 and 32.1 million during the height of their popularity in 2010.

Only 264,000 netbooks will ship next year, and the category is expected to disappear entirely by 2015.

Once again the category-killer tablet is taking the blame. IHS noted that netbook shipments began declining after 2010, when the iPad was first introduced.
