Or maybe it isn't. Some sample and report via survey, some sample and report by ad tracking, some seem to simply pull a number out of the air. Until there is a truly accurate reporting (for example, the providers reporting exactly how many devices of each type are on their network), let's just assume that both camps are having quite a bit of success and move on.</p>

What's 2 + 2?
Mathematician - 4
Philosopher - Depends on what they are
Statistician - What would you like it to be?

All I know is what I see in airport terminals. More iPhones than Androids.
