Weren't there reports two months ago about how teens had gotten over iPhones?

Yes, no doubt from the same analysts/web log writers who asked the insightful question "How much longer can Apple last?" and variations on that theme.

•48% of teens already own an iPhone, compared with 40% last fall
•62% of teens plan on making an iPhone their next mobile device (flat vs. fall 2012)
•23% expect to buy an Android phone, up from from 22% last fall


Extrapolate: almost half of current iPhone owners plan to switch to Android...

Can you be explicit about the math you're using to come to that conclusion, Black?

He may have been joking... maybe? Either that or I'm worse at math than I thought.

92 % of American teens are bad at math.

The other 15% aren't much better. :biggrin:

And it looks like 110% (48% + 62%) are committed to the iPhone.
