Smartphone market leaders

IDC reports that the iPhone took 19.2% of the US market in the first quarter (Jan-Mar) 2008, down from 26.7% in the fourth quarter of 2007. The various Blackberries took 44.5% of the US market in the first quarter. This share is up from 35.1% in the last quarter of 2007.

When the iPhone has great corporate email compatibility it will be interesting to see how this race runs.

Some of the young folks I know are buzzing about the new Palm Centro, and prefer it to the iPhone (at least prior to today's G3 announcement from Apple).

As for the Centro, I'm not sure if anyone has small enough fingers to use its keyboard but my daughters love it.

Any idea how many Centros have sold? iPhone = 6million to date for reference.
