According to the recent stats released by Flurry, a web analytics firm, it seems as if Apple thinks of iPad more as a gaming device more than anything else. The statistics released by the firm bring to light the time the Cupertinos are spending on testing the various categories of Apps for the upcoming Apple Tablet. As one would expect, Apple is spending nearly half percent of the time, 44% to be exact for testing various games.
There is more than one way to look at these interesting stats. One explanation would be that the gaming apps are larger in quantity and naturally would require more time for testing. Another possibility is that the games normally require more testing (various gestures etc) than other categories of apps.
It should be no surprise even if the games turn out to be the attracting as well as the selling point of the iPad. Imagine the gaming experience on a larger screen than the ones iPhone or iPod Touch possess.
The remaining top two spots for most testing time spent go to the Entertainment category and Social Networking. No surprises there.
