Here are the stats on market share. And here on traffic. They are not totally consistent. But they give you and idea. I do not know if the internet traffic off iPhones is a combination of WiFi traffic and mobile network traffic. I suppose so.

This is the year in which Europe will either fall apart or emerged stronger. I give it 75% that it emerges as a stronger union but the risk of collapse is still there. Germany has the key to solve the problem because of the size of its economy, its saving rate and its export volume. Germany has to decide on whether it continues to transfer some of its wealth in order to create markets for its exports or it let’s Europe fall apart and ends up with an overvalued currency and deteriorated markets. Already today it started paying negative interest rates which is a prelude in my view to a huge rise in the DM should it be born again. Tough choice. I think Germany can actually both save Europe and make money by buying underpriced Italian and Spanish bonds and selling them after stabilization. It can do what the FED did with many financial institutions, make a profit by providing much needed liquidity at a critical time.

The numbers for traffic come from browser stats, so it doesn’t matter whether it’s over wi-fi or cellular.
The point, I fear, is that Smartphones in general are nearly useless for anything but emergency web browsing, but that the iPhone is just about usable.
An iPhone user is four times more likely to browse the web on his device than the user of another type of smartphone.
This agrees with my own experience, for what it’s worth. I am surprised the differential is not even bigger.
