I think Jobs was expecting other manufacturers to come out with much crappier tablets thus making Ipad look better and selling more of it in the process.

Those that had the money and wanted an ipad, purchased one. they're are a lot of reasons they didnt hit their expected target like those interested may be holding out for them to be reduced eventually but lack of competition was not one of them. One would expect a lack of competition to push sales further past an expected demand
