Mobile Developer Survey, June 2010

,----[ Quote ]
| Apple and Google are now playing chess while 
| everyone else plays catch up. The surge in 
| popularity for developing tablet 
| applications on the two leading OSes, 
| coupled with second tier platforms seeing 
| flat to declining interest, suggests that 
| Google and Apple are moving the battle from 
| phones to a broader, more long-term platform 
| shootout for "anywhere computing."
| 
| [...]
| 
| Why this is significant: Developers see 
| Apple dominating in every category related 
| to its devices and app store. Yet Android 
| takes top honors for OS capabilities, 
| openness, and, long-term outlook. Despite 
| all of Appleâs success, developers see that 
| the winner long-term will be the mobile 
| operating system that has the most 
| capabilities and flexibility in scenarios 
| beyond phones.

Android Outselling iPhone in Midwest

,----[ Quote ]
| Collectively, Android handsets appear to
| be outselling the iPhone in the Midwest.

| existent out that way.
