Comments on: Palm Loses Ground in Latest ComScore Report

Palm's already small share of the smartphone market has dwindled even further, according to the latest figures released by ComScore. In their most recent Mobile Subscriber Market Share report, covering the period of March-May 2010, ComScore reports that Palm's share of the smartphone pie declined from 5.4% to 4.8%.

While no specific breakdown of devices or total users were released, one can easily speculate that part of Palm's part was comprised by Sprint Pre owners abandoning the webOS ship as their devices completed its first year on the market. These numbers may worsen over the summer months, as Sprint's white-hot Evo 4G just became available on June 4th and Palm has not released any new hardware since the Pre Plus and Pixi Plus in January.

Palm has gone under tremendous changes in last 3 months, they lost just 0.6 compare to other phone brands.
Apple lost is 1.0 and RIM lost 0.4.

webOS is strong. Next quarter...Palm is going to gain big.

you're delusional.

have you ever taken a statistics class?

loss is proportionately larger than it appears due to smaller base.
