Amazon Kindle Fire to hold 50 percent of Android tablet market in 2012, says analysts

According to the analysts at Evercore:

“While Amazon’s Kindle Fire has come out of the gates strong, as expected, we see Apple maintaining its competitive lead, if anything accentuated by what now looks like the only tablet to so far mount any credible iPad challenge apparently needing to do so by selling at cost; not to mention Amazon’s success may just vaporize other “for profit” Android tablet OEM roadmaps (e.g., we est Amazon 50% of all Android tablets in CY12).”

I don’t think it’s any surprise that, barring any groundbreaking move from Google and its partners, that the Amazon Kindle Fire could be dominant Android tablet.
