Being a closed system iOS has no chance with Android. Apple is in a happy place with iOS regardless of android.

These results are more in direct conflict with say, Windows 8, that is open to other manufacturers.

I am far more interested in the Windows 8 v Android battle...

I wonder how much of the predicted 100m Windows devices shipped per quarter will be tablets.


God knows. I would guess 70% as Windows phones has a bad sales history - but that doesn't mean anything really. These PREDICTIONS are usually full of crap. I remember everyone getting excited years back by predicted Zune sales, predicted Windows 7 tablet sales etc.,etc., Even Linux taking huge chunks of the desktop market was predicted by "experts" when I was at Uni.

I am willing to wait and see what actually happens than take these sales speculations seriously. I am not saying they will turn out to be wrong, but I will wait and see.

If the PC market does drop off as drastically as predicted MS will get burned. Windows 8 RT is peanuts compared to Windows 8 desktops in terms of revenue.

That prediction is another I find hard to swallow.
