Apple Closing Quickly on RIM Smart Phone Market Share
Market research firm ChangeWave today released its latest quarterly Consumer Smart Phone survey, which includes survey data taken in mid-September highlighting market share trends for Research in Motion, Apple, and Palm.
In the horserace among manufacturers, the release of the iPhone 3GS has led to a big jump in smart phone market share for Apple and has placed them within striking distance of Research In Motion — whose slew of models are still number one but have fallen to their lowest level in two years.
The report is an expanded analysis of data touched upon in September that showed Apple’s smart phone market share rising from 25% to 30% between June and September. The new analysis compares iPhone market share to the performance of Research in Motion, which has trended slightly down to currently stand at 40%, and Palm, which appears to be stabilizing at approximately 7% of the market after a steep decline from its leadership position earlier this decade.

My uncle recently told me about Steve Mann. It turns out Mann is the self-proclaimed founder of wearable computing and arguably the ultimate social media maven. That’s because he’s gone for periods of up to two years lifestreaming, before anybody even knew what lifestreaming meant.
There’s a good interview with Mann on YouTube.
