A beautiful way to trick statistics to make Apple look better than it does.
So Apple goes from 3.8 M to 8.8 M (5 M increase) and that's huge. Nokia goes from 13.7 M to 21.5 M (7.8 M increase) and that's nothing.
Actually, that means that during this year, from the people that decided to buy a smartphone, more people decided to get a Nokia instead of getting an iPhone. That's what it means.
It also means that looking at share, actually the iPhone didn't even make a dent on competitors numbers: only RIM goes down from 20.9% to 19.4 %, nothing great. All the increase in iPhone comes at the expense of secondary companies that anyway aren't true competitors.
So basically, I don't see how Apple is going to wipe out these guys as Apple fanbois have been predicting since the iPhone was released.
And all this on a market that correspond to less than 20 % of the cell phone market. Keep dreaming.
