Yes, I didn't specify a time frame. And no - I wasn't limiting myself to the US. And yes, it's been around 20% for a long time. If you think 28% materially changes the point - ok. I don't.

It remains that iOS users simply use their phones in commercial ways far above their unit market share. Even in the US...even with 50% share...the iPhone has far greater than 50% share of commerce.

I said from the beginning that I have no data behind my opinion - but there are other similar data.

I still believe that more ebooks are read on an iPhone than any other device.
