Windows Mobile ships fewer smartphones than BlackBerry OS in Q2 2008
News iconPublished on: 16 September, 2008 by PhoneArena Team
While Symbian is losing marketshare
to everyone else, what is most surprising about Gartner's
report on 2nd Quarter smartphone sales is how well RIM is
doing. In the Q2, not only did RIM not have any new devices
out (warmed over BlackBerry Curves don't really count), it had to
contend with delicious Windows Mobile devices like the Samsung OMNIA and the HTC Touch Diamond. With the BlackBerry
Bold set for imminent release and a whole slew of new
BlackBerry devices enroute (Storm,
Javelin,
etc.), the rest of 2008 looks to be peachy (although the effect of the
credit crunch on Wall Street cannot be completely ignored, given RIM's
corporate roots).
