Wait, wasn't Phone Arena just trumpeting all the great success of ios and how they were outselling android (you know, for the 1 quarter they had a new phone , and only in the US I believe) And now that the real numbers are out, we see ios has finally passed symbian, now that it's sinking faster than the Titanic, and about 2 years after Nokia said they were ending it lol. But hey apple, 19% is pretty good. It's almost double BlackBerry, now that they've fallen way off too....

This is exactly the 1990's computer market happening to apple all over again.
