		<description>I really really doubt that the &quot;iPhone now accounts for 16.6 percent of the smartphone market worldwide.&quot;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;You may have wanted to say 16.6 % of sales, which would still be very much way off. I doubt that they&#039;re experiencing sales anywhere near half their US ones on a global scale. People worldwide are just not as taken in by it as the US. Partly because we&#039;ve long had &#039;all-singing-all-dancing&#039; phones.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;That figure is only correct if some models of smartphone have not been included in those accounts. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Saying that, Windows Mobile has really become so dated that I wonder why MS seem intent on bringing out Windows 7 before it. A failure in mobile is something they may not recover from (in that space). Whereas we all know that Vista is not going to cost them the OS market.</description>
