iPhone Captures 2/3 of the Mobile Internet Market Share
Posted by Jeff Campbell in "Apple iPhone & iPod Touch" @ 10:00 AM
"The iPhone has been out for just over two years now, and a recent marketshare report has shown that the iPhone has over 66% of mobile internet traffic! If you didn't read that line, the iPhone has 66% of mobile internet market share!"
Not sure if this includes the iPod Touch, or how they would split them from each other, but it is impressive. Especially impressive if you compare what it was to just a year ago: 25%. Android is slowly catching up though, moving to 6.15% since it's debut in October 2008. Interesting comparison to Symbian, Android accomplished in 4 or 5 months what it took Symbian 2 years to do. I do find myself using the browser on my iPhone for quick looks fairly often when I don't want to drag out the laptop, especially if I'm at home or somewhere else where there is wireless, it is just too easy to use.
