U.S. Smartphone Market: Who’s the Most Wanted?

According to The Nielsen Company's monthly surveys of U.S. mobile consumers from July-September 2010, consumers planning on getting a new smartphone had a very clear preference: A third (33%) wanted an Apple iPhone.

An unfortunate side effect of the media’s recent surge of enthusiasm for mobile in the past year is a tendency to highlight data of dubious quality (often when better is available), and/or widespread misunderstanding, misreporting and failure to qualify figures they have cherry-picked. This isn't just misleading and confusing, it's damaging. Finding your way around the mobile stats compendium: Section B: Mobile Web; 3G. SMARTPHONE SURVEY: Why People Choose Android vs iPhone.
