But the metric your post used was Handsets, not Profit: "everywhere else in the first world owns or will own an iPhone."


I made a generalization, I didn't use metrics.

In any case, I find this type of pedantry kind of annoying. I made a point about RIM losing marketshare, my point was not about what percentage of a certain market Apple owns.


It's not really pedantry, though. You said that everyone does or will own an iPhone- that's demonstrably not true.


Nitpicking one aspect of my argument that RIM declines in marketshare based on whether my argument that Apple is or will become the dominant mobile platform is most certainly the absolute definition of pedantry.
