AppleInsider is reporting that Apple has 4% (down from 5.4%) of the smartphone market. So "as Siri becomes widely available" is really not a happening thing in the near term from Google's perspective.

4.2% of the global handset market, not smartphones (from the original allthingsd post: http://allthingsd.com/20111104/apple-headed-for-60-percent-o... )

I thought the number was awfully low. I can get it right, it appears the number is 44% Android, 27% iOS in the smartphone market.

So the strength of my original point is reduced.
