Apple now has 16.6 percent of the world smartphone marketshare, one analyst said Tuesday.
They are second only to Nokia, despite Nokia's inability to catch on in the US market. “The iPhone added more than just a 3G radio and a GPS receiver when it went from its first to second generation,” Avi Greenart, Current Analysis’ handset analyst, told Cult of Mac. Apple also greatly expanded the number of countries selling the iPhone, plus offered corporate e-mail support and the App Store, Greengart said.
