Exactly. Though karta wasn't really presenting a position just some facts and sources. I like the Arstechnica graphic better;
The pie is also getting bigger - smartphone sales up 76%, overall mobile phones sales up 11% (

The only direction you can go is down when you are nearly the only one in the market (in reference to Apples forcasted reduced market share). I'm curious what gets included in this Tablet market number (exact product sku's). It's interesting that if Apple sold
14.8 million iPads in 2010 and had 94% share, meaning that less than a million of anything else classed as a Tablet (by this measure) was sold. Wonder if that includes tablet PC's etc?
