Apple's secret sauce boiled dry - iPhone growth lowest since 2007 launch
More figures are proving to a shell shocked Apple loving press that the overly hyped iPhone is slowly dying and is set to fall behind Microsoft.
According to Canalys, the excessive growth which has characterised Apple sales in the smartphone sector has slowed and the outfit only had 19 percent of the market.
The Age put this market share figure in perspective when it pointed out that Apple is now one point ahead of the much maligned Microsoft. The winner right now is Android, which continues to dominate the mobile market, making up nearly 60 percent of those shipments. It is worth pointing out here that since Microsoft has patent trolled Android to bits, it makes $8 out of each phone sold, so it is winning here too.
