Android on the up

Interesting to see that, during the period July - September, Samsung overtook Apple to become the world's biggest seller of smartphones.

This obviously doesn't account for the launch of the iPhone 4S, but it's still tempting to paint this not as a blip but rather as Android taking control of what has become an increasingly bloody battle. 

I say this in relation to the recently released Steve Jobs biography, which contains the revelation that the Apple boss was furious at what he saw as Google pilfering features from the Apple iOS software. Jobs reportedly vowed to do everything within his means to destroy Android after last year seeing features in HTC’s Android 2.1 phones.
