The market share is very hard to evaluate and is in fact very contextual. For example if there are 70% of users using a mobile product X in Africa, they will be drowned in the majority of western countries, because the number of users is much more important. Still this 70% with different type of access or materials is still very important. Big numbers and raw stats hide often interesting and meaningful details. We have to be careful. -- Karl Dubost - http://www.w3.org/People/karl/ W3C Conformance Manager, QA Activity Lead QA Weblog - http://www.w3.org/QA/ *** Be Strict To Be Cool ***
