In a post on Yahoo’s Mobile Blog, the big purple Y! seems pretty gobsmacked that 10% of iPad traffic is coming from outside of the US, despite the fact that there has yet to be an international roll out of the tablet.

These aren’t just Canadians dipping south of the border: in fact, Yahoo claims that the U.K, France, Germany, Taiwan and Hong Kong are responsible for the vast majority of international iPad traffic.

At first, I thought that the vibrant international iPad resale market was more responsible for this trend than a handful of international travelers, but maybe not: according to Yahoo, the number of iPad users between the ages of 35 and 44 is thirty-six percent higher than the U.S. Yahoo average. For me, that looks like the age bracket you’d most likely expect business travelers to fall into.

Interesting findings. I wonder what numbers Google is seeing.
