\n “The latest smart-phone numbers from Canalys show that Apple’s gaining share like a bat out of hell,” Henry Blodget reports for The Business Insider. “The company has gone from 2% global share to 14% share in a year.”<\/p>\n

Blodget reports, “RIM’s creeping higher worldwide–now 20%–but it’s losing share in the US. Nokia’s still dominant worldwide, but it’s slipping (44%). Everyone else is getting crushed.”<\/p>\n

In the US, the market breaks down basically as follows:
\n \u2022 Research In Motion: 52% (down from 56% last year)
\n \u2022 Apple: 23% (up from 7%)
\n \u2022 Google: 2%
\n \u2022 Everyone Else: 23%<\/p>\n

Blodget reports, “Again, Apple’s gaining share astonishingly fast…from 7% to 23% in a year. Imagine what will happen when the company cuts loose from AT&T… Microsoft, meanwhile, is toast… Chris Jones, Canalys VP and principal analyst says, ‘The main loser has been Microsoft\u2019s highly standardised Windows Mobile platform. Its smart phone market share has now fallen below 10% and the trend is likely to continue as many of its OEM partners, including HTC, Motorola and Palm, are focusing investment on other platforms.'”<\/p>\n
