Additionally, according to Information Week, Android has surpassed the iPhone in App downloads holding 44% of App downloads while Apple clings to a 31% download share.

Nice analysis very informative.I thought Samsung could go up the HTC in the Q3 but my thoughts not come true.I hope Apple will defiantly reach the first spot in the Q4 pushing HTC down to second spot.
So, what is the battery issue doing to the iPhone 4?
