    Well as the title asks. Does any sort of report exist that's show the percentage of Blackberry usage per country?

    IE 15% of Canadian cell phone owners own a Blackberry. Or whatever that number may be and if no report is out there then what do you think the percentage would be for Canada?


    I think 30-35%

    30-35%? That's a stretch. I'd venture less than 5% for both the
    United States and Canada.

    I saw your link before you deleted it, and I noticed that it did not even list the 8900 or 9000. Not to mention folks still using older devices.

    Which is why I took it down. Didn't want to confuse / sidetrack the issue.

    Even with the 8900 and Bold and newer and older devices I still stand by
    5% as closer to reality than 30-35%

    That makes sense.

    Interesting.

    Research in Motion has over 30 Million subscribers last report. If 90% of those are in North America, then 10% of them will be Canadians.

    That works out to nearly 3 Million, about 10% of our population. Seems a little high, but some places, like Calgary, everybody packs a BlackBerry.

    crackberry.com - Traffic Details from Alexa

    Alexa credit us with 4.3%, that is more like 1.5 Million... about right.

    So everyone thinks my guess is too high? I was basing that guess off all my friends and family and what they own. Of all my family and friends there is a saturation of 40% Blackberry ownership.

    So I thought that my guess of 30%-35% would be a good one, guess not...

    But lets hear more from some other peeps and see what they think?

    Keep the comments coming!
