Fortune 500? Good mobility platform? Totally focusing on the US market, then. iPhone's market share in the US is around 50%, while only around 12% worldwide.

Interestingly enough, that's the point!

----------

The headline and main sentence are completely wrong, and are based on a misreading of the study. It simply surveys the devices using the Good mobility platform; it does not purport to survey enterprise activations in any larger sense. Given that Good's base is hugely skewed in favor of iOS devices, the article's premise is simply dead wrong.

Why do you think Good's base is highly skewed in favor of iOS devices? Because more people are using them in the Enterprise. I'm sorry, but to call this dead wrong without proving otherwise is hilarious - you could say that it's not factual enough, not accurate enough, etc. But dead wrong? Prove it.

The fact is that Android devices are, without something like Good, too vulnerable for the Enterprise. If you think they're being used out of box then you must be referring to some of the stupidest IT organizations in the world.

Do you know what Enterprise means? It usually means the "not a low end junk phone that can't do much".

The data source might not be sufficient for the headline, but I bet it's still pretty close to the truth.

Yes, Good does not support BlackBerry also.

While BlackBerry Enterprise Service 10 supports BB, iOS, and Android.
