The growth of Android users influences iPhone to some degree. Despite iPhone is still the most popular smart phone (http://www.epathchina.com/multifunction-cellphones-pda-smart-phones-c-34_160.html). Nevertheless, the interviewees who wished to buy iPhone have decreases to 28% from 32%. But, the market share still increases 1% to 31%. The market share of RIM and Palm are respectively 39% and 6%.

Despite the Android mobile presents fast development trend, the sales of Google’s first own brand Android phone Nexus One didn't achieve the expected situation. In the first selling week, Nexus One only sold 20 thousand. Therefore, despite users accept Android gradually, there is still a long way to chase iPhone 3GS.

However, contrasting Nexus One and iPhone directly is not appropriate; because Nexus One is merely one type of recent listed Android phones. Other Android phones like HTC myTouch 3G and Motorola Droid, both the two brands attracted a great many users. Generally speaking, the market share of the Android is rising, which is good news for HTC and Motorola.
