Android And BlackBerry Web Share Up In February… iPhone, Not So Much

March 3rd, 2010 BBerryNews

Quantcast Feb. Web OS Share

According to data just released by analytics firm Quantcast, Android and BlackBerry mobile web consumption in the month of February was up while that of the iPhone was down slightly.

Android’s share of North American mobile web consumption was up 8.3% from January 2010, to 15.2% of total mobile web consumption for the month of February. Apple’s iPhone OS share, which so far has seemed untouchable, dropped 3.2% from January to February 2010, while the share for RIM OS (Blackberry) grew 13.2% in that period, to 9.2%.

I wouldn’t start dropping stock in Apple (because of this news alone) as the results are pretty much expected and make sense.  The iPhone owns such a large part of the total market that any company which does something positive makes gains on Apple.

What will be really interesting to see  is this chart the month after the new BlackBerry Browser is released.

Verizon to Discontinue the Storm 9530, Curve 8330, 8830 and Pearl Flip 8230

March 2nd, 2010 BBerryNews

There’s a semi-confirmed rumor that Verizon will discontinue the Storm 9530, Curve 8330, 8830 and Pearl Flip 8230. We’ve heard that the Storm is on its way out, but its news to see the Curve 8330 (America’s most popular smartphone), and the Pearl Flip, a form factor that was never really given a chance, are both gone as well. We all knew that these devices would be on their way out eventually, as carriers update their stock with the latest devices.
Are you sad to see any of these go?
