Worldwide Smartphone Market Soars in Q3
"The continuing shift from standalone handhelds to converged smart mobile devices was confirmed again today by the latest estimates released by analyst firm Canalys. The positions of the top four device vendors worldwide remained unchanged from Q2, with HP displacing Japanese smart phone vendor Fujitsu to take fifth place. Nokia maintained its huge lead, with year-on-year growth of 142% being almost twice the market average. Particularly successful were its 3G Symbian Series 60 based smart phones, including the Nokia 6680, 6630, N90 and N70, but older devices, such as the 6600, continued to contribute to shipments, particularly in developing regions."
Leading the pack for the Smartphones we like here? MOTOROLA! No wonder we haven't taken over the world. When you look at the chart in this article while the percentage increase for Moto is big, the number of units sold is pathetic.
