iPhone Makes Up 50 Percent of Smartphone Web Traffic In U.S., Android Already 5 Percent

Doing
"But 1 get 1 free" kind of deal helped RIM's sales, which is very "unusual" to say the least
.
More Blackberrys may be in people's pockets but if you can't use them to do anything other than business e-mails and calendar, they're in a dangerous territory. Most of the time people don't even buy them, they're just given one.
Furthermore, RIM are still asking $200 to get into their developers program, from which you can submit up to 10 apps. This is more expensive and more restrictive than the basic Apple program. And obviously more than developing and submitting Android apps. If they think that they're safe in the enterprise market, they're wrong... Time will tell... Soon...
Update: I just came across this now:
Report: iPhone takes 40 percent of mobile browser market, besting Nokia
Quote:
The Apple iPhone and iPod touch web browser has increased its mobile browser market share to 40 percent from 33 percent, overtaking Nokia, according to AdMob's August Mobile Metrics Report. In the U.S. alone, the Apple devices account for 52 percent of mobile browser use.
Nokia dropped to 34 percent of the market share from 43 percent in February, the report says, even though the company's handsets continue to lead the number of smartphones listed in the global study.
Google's Android saw a steep increase to 7 percent from 2 percent and webOS took 4 percent of the market since the Palm Pre was launched. RIM's market share decreased slightly to 8 percent and Windows Mobile's share fell to 4 percent.
