Re: Link to that article
And with that article, we see where the media go next with their attempts to make Apple look relevant. The stages have been:
"Iphone is number one!" (conveniently ignoring Nokia/Symbian)
"Iphone outsells Android!" (still ignoring Nokia/Symbian)
"Okay, so Android way outsells Iphone, but Apple are still the number one company!" (using an ill-defined "smartphone" definition to compare sales, and ignoring Nokia)
"Okay, so now Samsung outsell Apple even on just their 'smartphones', but the Iphone is still the best selling model!" (ignoring that comparing single models isn't fair, when Apple only have one per generation, and others have loads)
Now we have reached a stage where even just one single Android model, out of thousands, outsells the Iphone. (As an aside, given that this is also just the US, previously one of Apple's strongholds, that's also quite impressive for Samsung.) What do the media do now?:
"But, but ... demand for the next Iphone 5 that hasn't even been announced is through the roof!"
Not sure how demand is measured or is relevant when it hasn't been announced. Media hype may be through the roof, but media bias is nothing to be proud of. They've been harping on about "Iphone 5" for about 18 months now. Give it a rest, already!
