The end of easy growth in smartphones | asymco

The fortunes of vendors is now clearly tied to the fortunes of their platform choices. Android has a spotty record with Samsung[1] and HTC having accelerated growth with Android, Motorola and Sony Ericsson have not rallied to a similar degree (though they did remain operational). But it’s at least very clear that BlackBerry OS and Symbian are now a burden to their owners.

Nothing more to add…. very accurate statement.  iOS and Android have established themselves as clear landers.  Windows Phone is the challenger.  I’m not sure where this leaves Blackberry and Palm…. but their prospects are not bright.
