Since I have neither AT&T OR Verizon as an option, my next smart phone will likely be an Android. I’d get an iPhone if I could use it lol. It’s looking like the numbers regarding android are overly hyped at best, and a house of cards at worst. Especially in the area of tablets. After this past year, I believe the iPad has become the ‘default name’ for a tablet. I’ve seen many examples where people will refer to a tablet as an “iPad”, without even seeing what it really is. Just like how the term PC became the default term for a home desktop computer over the years, and an internet search is to “google”. If the iPad continues to dominate through this year, they will have the market so saturated, I don’t see how anyone else could catch up, at least for awhile. It will take something truly remarkable to knock them off, and that Galaxy Tablet ISN’T it. No way....

Interesting. I think it is becoming clear that Android is fragmenting, and Google will not benefit from much of that fragmentation.
