The report concluded that 45.4 million people in the United States were using smartphones in the period ending in Feb. 2010, which is a 21% increase over period ending last November. RIM still has a strong lead over the field, with 42.1% of the smartphone market share, and it rose by 1.3% over this period. But the most interesting story is the rapid rise of Android, whose share grew 5.2%. Apple�s share has remained stable, with a .1% drop.
It�s important to note that while Android is clearly growing quickly, it still has a long ways to go to match Apple�s mobile user base. Apple�s iPhone OS is also used by the iPod Touch (and now, the iPad); Android still hasn�t been deployed on any popular devices that aren�t phones.
