| |  So, how has RIM fared since the release of the Storm?
That just about says it all.
It's a pity I've wasted the last year and a half trying to get some performance out of the browser on this device. All I can say is, RIM is getting exactly what it deserves. It will soon be on the ash heap along with Palm.

Admob isn't the most reliable in showing actual phone users and phones. Here's a few things. I realize the report is from few months ago, but still relevant. Quote: |
Remember AdMob data is based on the usage of mobile sites and apps, which is very different than if you were to look at estimates of device sales from Gartner, IDC, or your favorite Wall Street analyst. For those new to the Metrics report, visit this blog post for details on the report methodology.
| December 2009 Mobile Metrics Report « AdMob Metrics Quote: |
The report is based on the ad requests we receive from our network of more than 15,000 mobile Web sites and iPhone and Android applications. The data contained in the report is a measure of mobile data usage and does not represent the traditional view of market share based on the number of handsets sold
| Why don't they advertise on any Blackberry applications? Seems a little biased to me.

^^Hey look at that, an unbiased real study. You don't see too many of those around anymore.
P.S. I remember that thread that was started by civic, I think. It was a huge battle when I seen it, so I stayed away. I hope this one doesn't get that way...

C'mon people, lets not feed the TROLL, given his number of posts you'd think he/she would know how to use the "Search" option by now, that's why it's obvious they're "trollin". 
This was so beaten down already, gimme a break.

Well something you should take into account is that 2009 saw the greatest increase in smartphone adoption yet. So even while the graph shows a decrease, there's still an increase in sales. BlackBerry is doing just fine, the only thing that's changed is that it now has some viable contenders.
On an unrelated note, I'm interested to see how winmo will do when that's released, and more specifically, whos customers its going to steal.

JOEL... | The only thing you got me to post was that "YOU" are beating an already "DEAD" horse as this has been covered in at least 2 other threads that I know of, so your reason for starting another thread of the same topic is????
Oh wait, that's how you get to be a "master"
Sounds like "A.D.D" to me.

I already posted about it and some people (with an agenda) were so angry about it they went ballistic resulting in the thread being closed.
I am not a business expert by any means but I am fairly sure that is "good". Point me to the "ash heap" where 37% income increases happen in a 3 month period. I want to belong to it as well.
how's that epic fail sandwich taste?

Posted from my CrackBerry at wapforums.crackberry.com | Dude, you started a thread titled "read it and weep trolls" in rants and raves. Who had the agenda? And as its been pointed out in this thread already I ask again, what is the point? The company who made my TV made some money too. I need to start a thread about it...

| BTW, shouldn't you be banned for creating another account to pretend you have someone backing you up?
Cue jibberish.

Cue jibberish. | (1) my post was to the OP. You must be paranoid.
(2) if you are accusing me of having multiple accounts, you are wrong.
