Yes, when I hear how great the iPhone share is I always ask for a source and it turns out the source is US sales, where indeed the iPhone rules. But it's not the leader everywhere. In fact in the largest market it's not even second place (China). Nor is it tops when you look at world-wide numbers.
That said, I think the mini-iPad will have massive Christmas sales so buy your Apple stock now.
