Android Marketshare on the Rise
Leading mobile advertiser unleashes report.
Take this data with a grain of salt as it comes from AdMob's mobile advertising metrics. Having said that, AdMob did deliver over 6 billion (with a B) impressions in February, so they probably know what they're talking about. Anyway, this monthly report gives some great insight into current trends in the smartphone market.
jkOnTheRun gleaned some interesting Android info from this data. AdMob reports that Android now holds 5% of the smartphone OS marketshare in the US. Quite impressive considering there is currently only 1 device available and its not on either of the 'big two' US carriers (in case you're unfamiliar, the Android device I'm referring to the G1 on T-Mobile).
This is a great sign for Android but, as Kevin points out, Apples continued push along with the upcoming release of the Pre might cause this to level off a bit in the coming months.
While we're talking about Android, you'll be happy to know Documents To Go for Android is coming along nicely! Expect more news on that sooner rather than later. Keep one eye on our announce list, and one eye here on our blog to make sure you're ready!
