Is this really the correct ordering of market share? I'm pretty sure Blackberry actually has more market share than either iOS or Android, albeit massively less buzz and consumer interest.

edit: An IDC estimate from a few weeks ago (http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/qQjngE0rTd8yp1SXLrr4FA?...) gives: Blackberry OS (17.9%), Android (16.3%), Apple iOS (14.7%), Windows Mobile (6.8%)

  Wii:      73.97 million units sold
  Xbox 360: 41.7 million units sold
  PS3:      38.1 million units sold

This guy has an interesting definition of 'third'.

It sounds like he's conflating buzz with unit sales. Hope I never work for him.
