Funny, no one paid attention to the fact that the report that the OP quoted seemed to denote that smartphone = touchscreen toting mobile.

If that's not a recipe for horrible market analyst methodology, then I don't know what is.

The other beautiful error is the media/fan(atic) uptake of these numbers as indicative of the mobile market. RIM has one touchscreen mobile, of course they'd look bad here. Nokia has 20+ and <5 touch, of course they could look bad too.

When sense becomes common, maybe we'd all have a clue.
