Here's another report on the same thing. What's interesting to note is how fast Nokia slid, and how fast Samsung rose (over 500% this last year) - enough to nearly equal Apple from basically nothing last year...
HTC has also climbed stratospherically into 12.1 million phones sold in Q2.
The next few quarters will see Apple, Samsung and HTC battling it out for the biggest smartphone vendor out there.

I see this as further vindication of Apple’s system strategy of hardware and software built together and specifically built to complement each other. I expect them to take over all market segments in the future. Perhaps they will then lend money to the US government. Nah! They are too smart for that.
