I think you will find that statistic is getting old now that the iPhone4 is out... 1.7 million sold in 3 days, 2 million in five days. The white iPhone is not even available yet... And that was before AT&T sold even one iPhone4 through it's network of stores.
Well, let's put a little perspective on it, Apple delivered and took cash for that many in a few days, but they "sold" them over the period of 3-4 months as it was marketed to the public. Sales is a longer cycle than just the changing of money!
And we also need to realize that ~75% of iPhone 4 buyers are previous owners of iPhones. That means all these iPhone 4s are predominantly going to replace iPhone 3/3GS models. It's not new buyers, it's selling to an existing, already tapped market base. A niced size market base to be sure, but one that is quite limited.
Android phones - being so new - are pretty much only bought by new people. They're winning brand new users with each sale, not converting a previous owner.
And please check forward in the thread; you'll find that BunnySlippers defined it as phones, MP3 players, and portable computers.
Nokia simply cleans up when you look at those 3 markets. Five hundred million cell phones (what Nokia sells) is hard to beat.
Even Samsung and LG and Acer way out-sell Apple in those 3 markets. All of them have 2-3 times more cell phone sales than Apple, and huge numbers for computers and music players as well. It's not even close in terms of number of units.
Apple has good sales volume, but to be considered a market leader - or even in the top 5 - you need to reach past the 100 million mark in units moved. Apple's not there.
