Phone wars

While Android still claims only 7.1 percent of the U.S. smartphone market, "objects in the mirror may be closer than they appear."  This certainly seems to be the case with Google, which added 4.3 percentage points of market share in just four months.  And while Android's user base may skew "young, male, and cheap," such increase implies a much wider audience.

...And this writing on the wall is why Apple is sueing HTC.  Patents are just a pretext.
