Android Poised For Dominance In China, With Global Implications
Yet, counter to China’s apparent ambitions to kill Android and Google, officially sanctioned versions of Android are flourishing, starting with last year’s Ophone OS from state-owned China Mobile. With the help of Lenovo, China’s tech darling, Ophone devices are moving full steam ahead with more Chinese integrated services like an app store, where China Mobile takes 50% of sales revenue. Meanwhile, Motorola is developing a line of Chinese flavors for Android with Baidu as its default search engine in cooperation with the other state-owned mobile operator, China Unicom.
Good moves.
As Moore’s law applies itself to mobile devices, and sub-$100 Chinese-flavored Android 2.2+ phones are released, the over-$600 gray market iPhone will only occupy a niche of the market in China.
Same is true in Brazil and other emerging markets.

Android cresce 439% em 2010
De acordo com o relatório, o iOS, sistema operacional da Apple para o iPhone e iPad, lidera o mercado com 56% da preferência dos usuários. Em seguida, vem o RIM OS, da RIM, usado nos aparelhos BlackBerrys, com 17% do mercado. Na terceira posição, aparece o Android, do Google, com 11% de participação.
Parece certo.
Apple iPhone, BlackBerry Curve, Samsung Freeform (SCH-R350), Samsung Messager II (R560), e Motorola Droid (A855) são os cinco celulares mais vendidos, segundo Mobile Mix.
Nunca vi uma lista dessas para o Brasil.
