Android takes over Blackberry and Iphone


No one is arguing the success and profitability of Apple and RIM, but I can't help but feel like the android tidal-wave is starting to roll in.
Phone makers (except Apple & RIM) are investing heavily in Android as they scrabble to keep up.
Phone carriers are fed up with the their profit margins being trimmed, and are keen to see open source succeed.
Customers will see the cost of impressive smartphone functionality dropping rapidly.
With android...everybody will be a winner. This will guarantee it momentum doesn't slow.



Again no one argues the impressive UI that Apple offers, or its long term position in the market. It is a fantastic product.
It is just that the iphone is soon going to be in the luxury goods market and will be competing in a much smaller niche than they currently do.
The iPhone sales have peaked!


....the tablet market for Android hasn't even begun.
I heard Target in the US are launching a $150 android tablet.
With prices like this this, over the next twelve months this market is set to rocket.
