people are brainwashed by marketing, not really different from religion.

On the other hand Android is doing pretty well, Apple is losing market share or gaining something like 1% whereas Android is growing in double or triple digits. Personally i think it's a shit OS having used one, but I've gone from constantly seeing people walking around with iPhones to people with Androids, everywhere.

Even at retail stores that sell cell phones, the sales people would often push Androids on customers almost all the time. When I rarely set foot in BestBuy people are all huddled fiddling with the droids while the iPhone is sitting off to the site ignored.
