Fair criticism, although I think it's probably excluding China and India because of the vast local knock-offs. I'm still not sure why they wouldn't want to include that in the numbers.

That being said... MediaTek (and other similar chipset manufacturers) have managed to make some very inexpensive and tiny Android handsets (one of my coworkers imports Chinese handsets and has a very tiny, inexpensive 320x240 Android based Sony handset he had imported from China, for example). (ref: http://techcrunch.com/2010/07/18/android-china/). It's fair to assume that there must be a similar trend going on within China and India, but more importantly the whole rest of the world is clearly trending toward Android away from Symbian.
