Android adoption rate six times that of the iPhone

Internet trends guru, Mary Meeker, released her latest reports recently and the news is very favorable on the Android front. At an event in San Francisco she presented minutia of data focusing primarily on mobile growth. It doesn’t seem like enough can be written about the sheer size and scope of mobile growth these days, and Ms. Meeker’s numbers certainly reflect that. The fact that stands out most of them all? Android adoption rate is 6 times that of the iPhone.

We knew adoption had to be high with well over one million Android devices being activated each day, but six times the adoption rate is very impressive. This figure seems to be growing exponentially with each passing quarter as it was only at a ’4-times’ clip back in May. What are your thoughts on this? I know, like most data, we can spin it in all sorts of directions, but this has to be good for Android, right? What are some of your theories?
