This point is made a lot on the tech sites, but do we really all believe that if Android did not exist Nokia and RIM wouldn't have shed market share to Apple instead?
In other words, if Android hadn't taken 62% of the market we would have expected Apple to have grown far more than it did. Probably not to the same level that Android did as those devices reach from the high end right down to the cheapest, but surely to higher than 18.5% of the global market.
